One Coin Three Faces

boy aged ten, traumatised by personal events, searches for a surrogate family to belong to. In lifes journey through to adulthood he discovers friendship and love, bigotry and hate. In a quest for answers he turns to the Law and the legal profession to balance the scales of his unstable past and a turbulent present. ...I knew our lives had changed forever. There was little likelihood of us returning back to our former status as a family. I felt the warmth of tears down my face and tried not to sob, though this was a natural reaction. I walked towards my mother and buried my head in her clothing. She cried piteously. I cried with her as we held onto each other dearly. Life, for us, would never be the same again.
