Introduction
Lillie Lee lives on the Heights Estate. Confined to her bedroom by sickness, Lillie feels isolated and abnormal. Her bedroom window is her only connection to the outside world; she obsessively watches her neighbours from it and keeps herself occupied by making up stories about them. An unusual encounter with Dara, another girl from tthe estate, leads the two teenagers to strike up a firm friendship that may prove to be dangerous.
