Synopsis

True crime buff Gus Green has always felt out of place in the world. He’s overweight, gay, his injured mum’s primary carer, and he only has two real friends: sporty Kane and feisty Shell, who are both dealing with their own problems.

Gus’s life is flipped on its head one day when he finds a missing persons website with a digitally aged picture of a missing boy who looks eerily like him. Could he be a kidnapping victim? It would explain a lot about his patchy background, but what would that make his mum – his kidnapper?

As Gus and his friends dive into the mystery, their investigation reveals more questions than answers. Can they unravel the case before his world falls apart? And what will they do if the truth is too much to handle?

Gus Green has always felt out of place. He’s overweight, gay, his injured mum’s primary carer, and he only has two friends. Gus’s life is flipped on its head when he finds a digitally aged picture of a missing boy. Could he be a kidnapping victim?
