Theodore Brooks is an irritable, disillusioned 27-year-old who has experienced more than his fair share of disappointment. He's alienated from his family because of his sexuality, and he spent years (not to mention thousands of dollars) earning a college degree that he can't use in the real world. Drowning in debt and an existential crisis, he spends his days working at a local coffee shop, taking orders from grouchy stangers and doing his best not to put his fist through the wall. Then one day Dominic Evans wanders into the cafe---and he makes him an offer he can't refuse.
