9 Steps to a New Start

Synopsis

Gareth embarks on a day like any other - or so he thinks. As things go from bad to worse, he decides he wants more out of life than his rubbish job, failed relationships and sarcastic flatmate.  What Gareth needs is a new start, but first he has to escape a dodgy debt collector, and the unwanted attentions of a mysterious woman who stalks his every move.
