Frazer and Caitlin have come a long way together, without ever leaving their small Scottish town. Once they were teenage sweethearts but now life has got serious. They share a mouldy flat in a featureless building called Apex Court and are doing their best to give their autistic son a good life.
They''re scraping by, but the cracks are starting to show. Caitlin dreams of a fresh start in a new house, clean walls, decent food. But for Frazer, Apex Court is home. It''s where his parents lived and died and where the memory of them stays alive.
He''s asked her to marry him twice. She tries to leave most weeks. They still love each other - but is it enough?
