1988, Pencalenick, Cornwall. At 17, Jason wants much more from life than working at his father's pub and when fate, in the form of twins Daisy and Bea and their small circle of friends, offers him a glimpse of another, more glamorous, world, he's determined to become a part of it. It's Daisy who Jason is most entranced by, though. Everyone is: she's the sun around which others orbit. The trouble with the sun, of course, is that those who get too close risk getting burned - and by the end of the summer, one of the group will be dead. 2018, Camberwell, London. When famous actress Daisy Hemmings decides it's time to publish her autobiography, she chooses James Tate to write it. James is a ghost writer: it's his job to step into other people's shoes; to tell their stories for them. And he's good at it. Very good. After all, he's had years of practice at pretending to be someone he's not.
