Oliver is the boy from London who found Ginny’s stolen backpack. He emailed Ginny telling her he found her backpack with the letters inside. She decides to meet him at a café to get her belongings but Oliver refused to give her the belongings unless she gave some of the profit of the artwork the letters tell about. Ginny had to say yes so she could finish the journey her aunt sent her on before the backpack was stolen. When he first planned the journey he expected it to be just Ginny and himself but then Ginny’s friend Keith and his girlfriend, Ellis, tag along for help. The first day was the worst, Keith tried to steal the envelope back that Oliver kept in his possession for insurance of his payment but failed. They decided to take Keith’s beat-up old car during the journey which isn’t good because it makes Ginny sit with Oliver in the cramped cluttered back seat. During the long car rides they find pieces of artwork for the collection where the letters say they would be. There were many fights between Oliver and Keith even though Oliver kept to himself. Keith did many mean things because of the fact Oliver was blackmailing Ginny. When they finally find all the pieces they take a long even more cramped ride home. Oliver finds a person to auction of the pieces with a contract containing equal percentage of the profit. After all the pieces were sold Oliver rejects the money and gives all the money that belonged to Ginny back.

                Oliver gradually became more and more kind throughout the trip even with the tricks and pranks Keith pulled on him that were nasty and mean. Oliver gradually got nicer because he gradually grew to like Ginny. Although he first went on the trip to get money he desperately needed, his affection for Ginny put the conflict aside.  Oliver went from a horrible blackmailing guy to someone that is affectionate and caring by the end of the book. It was a fairly quick change; it was about a little over a week that he changed from the course of the trip to when Ginny and Oliver sold the art pieces. Oliver refused to take the percentage that was claimed his because he cared to much for Ginny to do such a nasty thing when after all it was hers to begin with.
