29-year-old ZJ, a resilient androgynous Malaysian, tragically lost her family in a car crash when she was 18. Growing up in Oldham, she took up waitressing under precarious conditions and pursued a part-time college degree, despite a job that offered no promising prospects. While ZJ often found camaraderie among the lads, her closest companion and confidant was Abs, whom she harbored deep feelings for.
Meanwhile, 26-year-old Nick, a true-born Mancunian, was secretly the heir to a criminal empire in Rusholme. He held a grudge against Abs for an unsettled debt, unbeknownst to anyone, including ZJ.
