<p>Twelve-year-old Anna’s parents are going through a rough patch, but Anna <i>can’t</i> let them split up. Not when it might mean living apart from Anto, her twin brother.

It’s a twin thing, and nobody’s going to separate them.<br><br>So Anna hatches a plan: get the whole family on a plane to Italy. Her parents have always been happiest on holiday.
