It's summer 1997, school is over and Charlie Lewis's life is in shambles. His family is breaking up, his father is falling apart and the long, empty holidays stretch ahead towards an uncertain future.

And then, quite by chance, Charlie meets Fran Fisher and it's as if a new world has opened before him.

But can it last?
