The borders between you and me...When worlds collide and a chance encounter changes everything...Mia and Adam - two young, (seemingly) perfect lives with the world at their feet. But hidden behind their delicate façade, a painful truth is crumbling: the past.Mia's life is perfect. Not only her two million followers on the internet are convinced of this, but also Mia's mum, who spares no expense to give her beautiful daughter a life she should be grateful for. Mia hides the many scars on her skin and the lack of lustre in her eyes with a filter to show the world what she should see.Adam is a model student. Performing at his best and studying for hours on end is a matter of course for the successful young man, as he doesn't have much else to look forward to at home. Adam's world has turned grey since his mum left. Even his escape into the colourful world of art can't fill this void.A sensitive and profound coming-of-age story that shows that the appearance of a perfect life can be deceptive.
