Character Profile : Holly Pearson


Holly Pearson has been brought up in a family that has taught her to steal to get by. At 16 she decides to run away from this and tries to leave it behind, but she soon discovers it isn't that easy. Trying to live on her own, with no home or money, she still has to continue to steal to get by. She meets a boy called Harley Edwards, and they quickly become close friends. Harley influences Holly and she starts to realise more and more the errors of her ways, but she never tells him of her lifestyle. The shock comes when she breaks into a "random" house, which turns out to be that of Harley's. He catches her in the act and Holly shocked at what she's just done, runs away onto a train heading one way to London. A text message from Harley saying I "forgive you" makes Holly think that she can't run away from her troubles and a good friend.
