Overview

Set in the early 1970s, twenty-three year old American, Terry Gains, arrives unexpectedly in London-it was not part of his life's plan. Knowing no one he soon meets two older, gay American expats, Carlos and Burt and finds an instant social life. Their Earls Court basement flat is conveniently located near London's legendary gay pub The Coleherne, and the below-ground disco, Catacombs, just around the corner (with its also-legendary men's room), both historically real places. Terry lands a job at Harrods, the iconic department store, and gets a life's education in food, fashion, culture and style as he interacts with his wealthy, titled customers and colorful fellow employees. When life with Burt and Carlos doesn't work out Terry finds more suitable digs and meets the story's main characters, his new flatmates Tess, Gracie and Finn, all young people Terry's age. One day an improbable new face-""The Face""-appears at the flat. This is Sebastian, a charismatic top model and entrepreneur. In no time Terry and his flatmates become fatefully entangled in Sebastian's world of glamour and intrigue. Meanwhile, Terry discovers the downside of being bisexual in a heterosexual relationship as he and Tess become serious.
