It’s 1972 and as the dreams of the sixties give way to anger and unrest, the charismatic anarchist Declan O’Connell commits suicide, leaving his boyfriend Pearson and fellow squatter Nina to try and make sense of what has happened. Enter Sweet Thing, a streetwise rent boy, who has an uncanny hold over glam rock star Johnny Chrome; while in the wings lurks Detective Sergeant Walker, ‘hippy specialist’ of the newly formed Bomb Squad, who knows more about O’Connell than anyone ever suspected. The course of all their lives is about to change forever—for better and for worse.
