It's on! The wildest year of our simmering heroes' saga of heartache, triumph and disaster arrives. Simon finds himself in the forest of the London night, partying, protesting and writing essays under the influence. Nick plays a showcase gig in Covent Garden, hoping for every talent scout and A&R man in town to beg Felo de Se to sign with their label. The band's goth origins and future direction causes rising tension. And the two unfortunates, poor fools that they were, embark upon an LSD night that will leave them haunted and scarred.
