Holidays at last! But for Charlotte, the trip she was planning with her friends won’t be happening because she doesn’t have the money. Instead she spends the summer running her mother’s not terribly successful sandwich bar with the help of Jamie, a trainee chef, and Metin, Charlotte’s best friend. Together, the three cook up the perfect plan for turning the sandwich bar into something really cool. Sound good?
