Would you lay down your life for a friend?
Budding playwright Allie prefers to keep her drama on the stage...
...until she goes on a week’s sixth-form trip to the stunning but treacherous Morecambe Bay where she meets a mysterious boy whose accent she can’t place.
Step by painful step, Allie finds out who Mareno really is. The more she learns about the dangers that ensnare him, the more determined she becomes to write him a happy story. But the drama that unfolds is all too real, with an ending no one would seek.
