When Nick's mother dies suddenly, the 14-year-old is sent straight into a boys' home, where he finds institutional intimidation and violence keep order. After countless fights and punishments, Nick thinks life can't get any worse but the professionally respected deputy head, Mr Creal, has something much more sinister in mind.
