Stone Cold Review
After Problems with a step-dad at home, Link (a teenage boy) decides to leave home. He lives on the streets of his hometown Bradford while his sister (who lives nearby) supports him. After issues with his sister’s boyfriend he decides to head for London on the false dream of picking up casual work here and there and living in a cheap flat or bed-sit. When he arrives in London he find he had a very wrong vision of London. With only £50 pounds in his pocket and a very unrealistic chance of getting a job his prospects begin to look grim. His money soon runs out and he is forced on to the street. He finds a street-hardened friend called Ginger and they start to trudge through the cold and hard life on the street together. When Ginger and other homeless people go missing, he and his new friend Gail start to get suspicious.
