Matt Lowe was born into a large, loving family who lived in a small holiday resort on the English coast. Yet, unknown to his parents and peers, his life was far from ordinary. For many years, he was abused by a young man who had been welcomed into Lowe family life...in the guise of the perfect family friend.

Jeremy was intelligent, artistic and fantastic with children. A real-life Peter Pan, he was loved by the children and trusted by the adults. But he soon singled out Matt for his particular attention. As their relationship took a more sinister turn, Matt became increasingly dependent on this new mentor and isolated from his family.

Beautifully written with heart-wrenching candour, Matt's story begins in adulthood when he falls into a deep depression and embarks on a period of therapy forcing him to confront the true nature of his relationship with Jeremy.
