South London: foxes are behaving strangely, Burmese immigrants are going missing, and everyone is trying to get hold of a new party drug called Glow. Raf, a young man who suffers from a rare sleep disorder, spends his days walking Rose, a bull terrier who guards a pirate radio station, and his nights at raves in warehouses and launderettes. When his friend Theo vanishes without a trace, Raf's efforts to find him lead straight into the heart of a global corporate conspiracy. Meanwhile, he's falling in love with Cherish, a beautiful young woman he met at one of those raves, but he'll soon discover that there is far more to her than meets the eye.
