“Why did I never do this before? He’s helpless. It’s perfect.”

The cult of Cicada’s Children has just been discovered. Its revered leader, Stanley Cicada, and his beloved children have been arrested and imprisoned. But one remains – Bella. Danny is sweet, naïve and a little bored of his ordinary life. When he meets the bubbly, quirky, unorthodox Bella he is struck by her free-spirited nature. The world is new and a little alarming but Bella knows what to do, all she needs is a perfectly unsuspecting idiot. Come into the minds of Danny and Bella to see if Cicada’s Children is really dead.
