Delroy is in trouble. He is always in trouble. If it isn't school, then it's his parents. If it isn't his parents, then it's the police...
Delroy is black. His parents come from Jamaica but he was born in Britain. He is not sure where he belongs of what kind of person he will become. Will he be like Stephen, determined to build a good life for himself no matter what difficulties there might be? Or like Bradman, who lives on the streets and is already into crime?
