    • Liebe Annabelle, hallo, ich heiße Guy. Falls du nicht wissen solltest, wer ich bin: Ich schicke dir diese Mail, weil mein Dad und dein Dad der Meinung sind, dass wir E-Mail- Freunde werden sollen. Was passiert, wenn ein 15-Jähriger von seinem Vater eine E-Mail-Korrespondenz mit der Tochter eines ehemaligen Studienfreundes verordnet bekommt? - Richtig, er versucht, sich der lästigen Pflicht möglichst schnell zu entledigen. Aber die Empfängerin seiner drögen E-Mail, Annabelle, lässt sich nicht so einfach abschütteln. Und Guy bleibt gar nichts anderes übrig, als auf ihre frechen Kommentare zu antworten. Aus dem anfänglich stichelnden Pingpong entsteht bald mehr: Guy und Annabelle verlieben sich sogar ineinander. Doch plötzlich tauchen Fragen auf - Fragen, die beide in eine spannende Spurensuche um ihre eigene Identität verwickeln. Es scheint da ein Geheimnis zwischen ihren Vätern zu geben, von dem sie unter keinen Umständen etwas erfahren sollen. Aber in Guy und Annabelle ist der Zweifel gesät: Sind sie wirklich die, für die sie sich immer gehalten haben? Und was folgt daraus für ihre Beziehung?
