Theatre headliner Trevor Rowland is at the peak of his career when disaster strikes. In one fell swoop, he loses his eyesight, his fame, and his boyfriend, who absconds with most of his money. Trevor must take on a flatmate, hardworking East Ender Jack Burrows, to afford the rent. Anger and bitterness have taken up residence in his heart-but Jack shines light into the shadowy corners with his relentlessly sunny disposition. Jack introduces Trevor to a local drag club and convinces him he can enjoy the stage again. Trevor's defences slowly come down as Jack becomes much more than a barely tolerated roommate. But will Trevor's fragile trust be destroyed when it appears he's been manipulated yet again by a man he's come to care for? Will he reclaim his life or crawl back into a shell of defeat? Trevor must learn to trust not only a man, but himself, once more.
