Colin Reed is a socially awkward man, fearful of everything-his sexuality, change, people, life. When his parents die, he loses their protection and is forced out into the wider world. Too many years of hiding away, slipping unnoticed through life, moving with the flow, and accepting whatever comes his way has left him without the life skills he needs to survive. He knows he will never be Mr Popular or a Captain of Industry.
His frustration arises from not knowing his dreams and chasing them with a passion. Since Colin can't come to life, then life will come to Colin, testing him with one trouble after another, bullying and persecution, the attention of a jailbird, major upheaval and a rocky love affair. This is the story of a fragile man, struggling to find himself, in a hostile world.
