Paul lives a quiet, tightly controlled life, dividing his time between the gym and his local pub. A former boxer, he keeps his distance from the world. Then he meets Duncan. Charismatic, reckless and impossible to ignore, Duncan draws Paul into an unlikely friendship that begins to change everything.As their bond deepens, Paul finds himself pulled towards excitement, risk and a sense of belonging he thought he’d lost.
