This play concerns the random stabbing of an 18-year-old boy by a girl of the same age, one night in a London shop while she was out of her head on drugs. She asked for a pound, he told her to eff off, and was knifed in the heart for his brusqueness. His family struggles to find meaning and foregiveness. His mother's determination to understand the atrocity brings her face to face with his killer and forces the family to confront the bitter senselessness of their loss.
