Description
When Annette Shaw discovers a badly beaten teenage boy abandoned in woodland close to her home, she has no idea that rescuing him will expose a far more sinister world. Her own teenage son, Joe, is being blackmailed and threatened with being drawn into the drugs trade as a courier. Meanwhile, Detective Chief Inspector Max Bellamy is investigating a series of mysterious deaths which increasingly look like carefully disguised murders. As Bellamy uncovers links between drug dealers and vulnerable boys, the investigation reveals a brutal modern-day depiction of Dickens’ Fagin from Oliver Twist.
