Le Voleur

"It's not fair! I hate them all. One day I'll show them!"

When a five pound note goes missing from the staff cloakroom, Kevin is the prime suspect - of course. He's been in trouble before and his dad is in prison, and everyone says how like his father Kevin is . . .but Kevin isn't to blame. He's unjustly accused and people who think they know him turn out to be wrong.

Poor Kevin hasn't really got much going for him at the moment. The only interest he has in life are the caverns - the dangerous, derelict caverns which stretch for miles beneath the woodlands by the town. The caverns become Kevin's refuge and obsession. He goes exploring one day and discovers a stash of stolen goods, and this is when the real nightmare begins.

A powerful and thrilling story which deals with the difficulties and problems of living down a bad name.
