‘You don’t want me to stop, you little shit. You want it,’ he snapped. ‘Yes, yesss, ohhhh, yesss,’ he panted. I silently screamed. Failing at school, trapped in a loveless home, Graham is struggling with life. At fourteen he makes the decision to leave school and home.
What follows is a series of misadventures as he escapes—an abusive father, a violent co-worker, a botched robbery, a near-fatal car accident and a sexual predator.
Finding himself alone in a strange city he has to find a way to survive, but how?
Who would help this boy?
A chance encounter brings him into a world he has not known, one filled with warmth and friendship, but before long he again faces violence and prejudice. As he finds love, the person he fears most, reappears.
