During the COVID lockdown, teenagers Nemindi Wijayaweera and Amanya Atukorale, both 14-year-old students of Sirimavo Bandaranaike Vidyalaya, Colombo 7 put their spare time to good use.
The story they wrote has just been published. ‘Who will take the crown?’ follows sisters Kate and Allie after a tragic event in their lives. They face a cascade of nerve-wracking events in a world where they can only trust each other. A world where everyone is trying to get hold of Monaco’s most prized possession!
Secret agents, unknown royal descent and murder attempts all figure in a plot where they unravel a peculiar puzzle.
The two best friends Nemindi and Amanya will donate all proceeds from the sale of the book to charity.
