Instead of GCSEs, Cain, Riyad and Jonjo got sentences. Inside a young offenders’ institution they trade sweets, chat, kill time – and await fatherhood. Grace’s job is to turn these teenagers into parents, ready to take charge of their futures. But can they grow up quickly enough?

A desperate teenager snatches a rich woman's handbag but in a bizarre twist of fate discovers her life is not as rosy as it seems and that they have more in common than he realizes.
