Dark Heart by N Davies
This all begain quite unexpectedly one rainy autumn evening a couple of years ago in a fairground near the centre of Nottingham. . . . . ' In amongst the bright lights and bumper cars, Nick Davies noticed two boys, no more than twelve years old.

Davies discovered they were part of a network of children selling themselves on the streets of the city, running a nightly gauntlet of dangers - pimps, punters, the Vice Squad, disease, drugs.
