Maddy has a rare illness that keeps her indoors. She has not left home for seventeen years. Her only face-to-face company is her mother and her nurse, Carla. Then Olly moves into the house next door. He is tall and slim, and wears black. Maddy spots him through her window, and their eyes meet. She feels sure she will fall for him. She also fears that love will end in disaster.
