Jamie Morgan's life has always been blighted by the large, heart-shaped birthmark on his face. He lives in an urban world dominated by a terrifying gang culture, whose random violence has convinced Jamie that the world is meaningless and ugly.

Once Jamie accepts this the world reveals itself as a thing of great beauty - And that's when his real nightmare starts.
