A new party drug ‘rage’ threatens to ravage the streets of Auckland. In a city panicked by the drug’s rise, Farr Paddock, a reclusive hunchback, is driven into hiding by threats of violence over his obsession with Tegan Goldacre, a rising starlet with ruthless instincts and a talent for reinvention.

Demonised as a ‛rage-fuelled monster’ and with no one he can trust, Paddock’s life hangs by a thread.
