1950’s L.A. Sixteen year old Henry Blomqvist is the son of an aspiring actress and stepson of a millionaire businessman. He is an embarrassment to his parents, a useless layabout who is constantly getting arrested for cruising the parks.
But his vices pale in comparison with the dark secrets in his parents’ lives. The kidnapping of Henry’s stepfather triggers a series of events which expose the skeletons in their closets and finally give Henry the chance to step up to the mark and show them what he’s really made of.
This is a pitch black noir mystery, featuring juicy language and unsavory characters. The story deals with themes of abuse and exploitation. Listener discretion is advised.
