Growing up on a Middlesbrough council estate, Eve finds herself dealing increasingly with sleazy male admirers, spiteful classmates, and now, her mother's cancer. Trying her best to distract herself from the difficulties unravelling at home, her eyes are opened to a multicolour life of one night stands, drug fuelled discos, and endless varieties of cheap plonk. She barely has time to notice Adam. Adam, however, notices Eve. Whilst contending with sexual frustration, a violent father and increasingly compulsive behaviour resembling OCD, he begins to obsess over Eve. But is he too busy reading Razzle in his bedroom to make his move?
