There are some do over stories that might fit.
But I can recommend MACK by Ernest Bywater.
He has others that he has written. It might titled : power play or Kim.
Also, Incredible Changes has danger with the agencies at various chapters.
Super long but it fits all of the tags you have listed.

There is no tag for 'coming of age'
Also, it appears there are no stories that include all of the other tags you listed.
Maybe you need to adjust your search criteria..?

it's a story category - I suspect he's looking for anything with a mix of the tags mentioned.
it's a story category
It is, however it isn't a current tag and there is no way to search for it, with the exception of using the advanced search/text search and setting it to exact match.
Maybe there should be a 'coming of age' tag listed in 'story types', but at present there isn't.

I had that problem with my recent story. I manually listed 'Coming of Age' as an additional code in my story description.

Yes, there is. On category search once you have selected all the tags you want. At the bottom past the tags are more search options. The very first one is story genre. You can select coming of age there.

Good point, not exactly a stand out placement, might also help if the genre listed were in alphabetical order...?

Might be worth noting that it is not necessary to select any tags first, you could just select the desired genre.
Take a look at Shiloh by The Scot and Ernest Bywater. It doesnt fill the entire bill, but if you take a flier you might really enjoy it.
