What's it about?
London 2014. Holly Smith has never fitted in.
Adopted when just a few months old, she's always felt she was someone
with no history, the girl who just appeared. All she has is the address
of where she was born - 32B Gambier Terrace, Liverpool. By a bizarre
twist of fate Holly discovers that the flat is available to rent. She
travels north and moves in. When she finds a biscuit tin full of
yellowing papers under the floorboards, she wonders if this might hold
the secret to her past.
Liverpool 1981. Fifteen-year-old Darren negotiates life with his errant
mother and the younger brother he is bringing up. When the Toxteth
Riots explode around him Darren finds himself with a moral dilemma that
will have consequences for the rest of his life.
Flitting between the present and the past, we discover how Darren and
Holly's lives become intertwined. Will Holly uncover the secrets of her
past? Or will she always feel like the girl who just appeared?
