Contact on the Net

Phil is a man with a minor dependence on prescription medications who has conversations with famous people from history on his telephone, despite the fact that it’s out of order.
Zac is a journalist working on an expose of the illegal drug industry. He’s joined-at-the-hip to Phil because of an incident during their school years when Phil saved his hand from being nailed to a desk by a kid named Roach.
Cassie is a woman working at a gentlemen’s club in Mayfair, London. She’s having a online affair with Zac, aided by Phil, who is doing what he believes is his best to keep things moving.
Throw in Phil’s Balkan girlfriend and her family, Archie Thompson and his assorted gang of thugs and standover men, and a floating raft of characters, each with their own distinctly odd and unusual background, and you have the dark and funny, Contact on the Net.
