The stories of two youngsters drawn into crime. Nikki, in the present day, who is living on the streets to escape the advances of her mother's boyfriend, and Nick, living in the middle of the nineteenth century, who is desperately trying to keep hismother and two small sisters from starving. The parallels between the circumstances of the two teenagers, and the reactions/punishments of society, bring it home that the reasons for and the reactions to petty crime have barely changed. The stories end happily with Nikki being able to return home and Nick emigrating to Australia to start a new life.
