Two, British, seventeen year old boys are in their final year at Eastwinter Manor. They have their own stories, families, and their own experiences - however, they are both so very deep in the closet of their own denial.
Dan, a wallflower of the manor, who sticks to himself. He also is a fanatic for bugs, specifically beetles.
And Lyon, a popular sports member of the school, with his supportive best friend Sophi-Louise who promised never to leave his side.
A tale of love, both platonic and romantic ~ and a book for those looking for an dual-narrative LGBTQ+ story, as our protagonists must make the decision to embrace the now, and resurge when times get rough. But moreover, will the protagonists ever be able to embrace themselves?
