It`s 1984 and one of the hottest summers Yorkshire`s seen. It`s the kind of woozy heat to lose your mind in. Mona is fifteen years old. She`s a drinker, a thief and a fruit machine addict. Things are already going badly in the pub where she lives with her obese step-brother PorkChop. But when Mona meets posh Tamsin Fakenham, a sassy girl with beautiful breasts, an actress mother and a sister who`s died of starvation, things very quickly get much worse.
