They were going so fast they might as well have been running. But there was a good reason for that. They were excited. They had just arrived at Leeds’s famous Bramley Carnival. Three children. And one dog. The dog was called Bailey. He was Mohammed’s mum’s dog, an ex-police dog. Bailey walked obediently alongside Mo, calm and at ease in the crowd. And what a crowd it was. Grace thought there must be a thousand people there at least. Eating burgers and candyfloss. Screaming on the ghost train and the roller-coaster. Some of them queueing calmly to have their faces painted by two teenage girls in a tent. ‘Seen him?’ the boy next to Grace said. Kian. Grace’s brother. Kian looked older than he was in his Nike baseball cap, trainers and tee-shirt. Grace wore a bow in her hair. She wasn’t into brands. Kian was pointing at a man. The man was thin.
