Robbie Howard is a streetwise, fast-talking, unemployed 23-year old living in Leicester with the only person that he cares about, his critically ill grandad. Effectively orphaned at the age of 8, Robbie has grappled with the transition to adult life prompting him to lie to his grandad about being employed in a job that doesn't exist. His income is usually derived from pedalling stolen goods and participating in other low-level scams with colourful drug addicts and small-time petty criminals. When the opportunity arises to dupe an elderly charity shop worker and steal a high-value donation of clothes by a local rock star, Robbie can't resist. But Robbie realises he's in too deep when the son of the charity worker, Egan, catches on to his game. Could Robbie's time be running out?
