Inspector Lynch is giving Sgt Stone a shoulder to lean on and trying to help him work through it. In the meantime, a gang of kids are spending their unfilled days with small acts of vandalism and general anti social behaviour, 3 of this gang decide to break into a local electronics factory but are beaten by the alarm system and while they are trying to escape through some derelict buildings one of them falls through the floor and is badly injured so one of his friends seeks help from the police who are investigating the alarm. The injured lad goes to hospital and his friend is taken to the police station where Sgt Stone sees a chance to talk to the young lad and tries to explain to him just how his life will go if he continues on this path of minor crimes and where it will lead for him by spending his life in and out of trouble and or prison and that he has a chance to make something of his life to get out of the poverty and degradation in which he lives with his mum. This story centres around Sgt Stone's sense of failure and the young lad's choice to make something of his life while he still can. Written by mch2469 See less
