Us against you
Backman, Fredrik, 1981-2018
Large Print
Tucked in a forest in the north, Beartown's residents are tough and hardworking. They don't expect life to be easy, but they do expect it to be fair. Which is why the sudden loss of their hockey players to the rival town of Hed hurts. So when a new star player arrivers, Coach Peter sees an opportunity to rebuild the team - to take on Hed and restore Beartown's fortunes. But bringing the team together is a challenge. As the match approaches, the pranks and incidents between the communities increase and hatred grows deeper. By the time the last goal is scored, someone in Beartown will be dead and residents of both towns will be forced to wonder whether the game they love can ever return to something simple and innocent.
