Young gay William Beckwith spends his time and his trust fund idly cruising London for
erotic encounters. When he saves the life of an elderly man in a public convenience an unlikely
job opportunity presents itself - the man Lord Nantwich is seeking a biographer. Will agrees
to take a look at Nantwich's diaries. But in the story he unravels a tragedy of
twentieth-century gay repression lurk bitter truths about Will's own privileged existence.
