The two children, who are alienated, start their own fraternity and call themselves "Fideli" (Fia) and "Farornas konung" ("The King of Dangers", Hampus). When Hampus and Fia meet, they don't want to say their real names. The shoemaker's wife thinks that Hampus is stupid as he "always makes them move house" they have changed home often. One day a boy called Hampus comes to the village together with his uncle, who is a shoemaker, his wife and their 6 children. Many people say bad things about Mrs Pettersson. Fia and her mother Mrs Pettersson, a piano-teacher, live in the big house of the village's "häradshövding" (a countryside local judge/ lawspeaker), where the bad-tempered housekeeper Malin lives. The book takes place in a village in the Swedish countryside during the 1930s.
