The late 1980s.
Robin dreams of becoming Jim Kerr, singer in the best band in the world, Simple Minds, despite having no talent whatsoever.
Fliss is a musical genius, perhaps the East Midlands’ answer to Kate Bush, if only she had more confidence.
Until rock stardom inevitably descends upon him, Robin takes a job at the local garage, where for the first time in his life he finds a sense of purpose; while Fliss, pushed by her mother, reluctantly auditions for TV’s biggest talent show and proves an instant hit.
When dozens of fast cars are stolen, old mechanic Vern recruits Robin to help him investigate suspicious goings-on at a derelict railway yard on the edge of Sherwood Forest.
It’s all a bit of a lark until somebody gets killed and Robin and Fliss find themselves entangled in a police investigation.
But does death mean the end of their romantic and musical dreams, or is it only just the beginning?
