OverviewTwo years after his favorite uncle was blown to bits in a London Tube station, Tom has hit rock bottom. He's quit school and turned his back on his music and everyone that once mattered to him, including the girl he can't forget. Living with his single, pregnant aunt, working at the Union pub with his former friends, and reckoning with his grieving, alcoholic father, Tom's in no shape to mend what's broken.
