Summaries

13 year-old Gavin ends up in the wrong school after an administrative error from social services. He starts playing truant with a gang of younger kids, but when one of his new friends falls ill after swimming in the ocean, he suspects a nearby power station is leaking radioactive waste into the sea. After stirring some unsympathetic attention, Gavin attempts to take matters into his own hands.—Ulf Kjell Gür
