HOW FAR WOULD YOU GO TO GET REVENGE...

Rangi is the pakeha kid with a Maori name. His early life has been overshadowed with violence and neglect when his mum marries Ross, an abusive man, who beats and belittles him for having an imaginary friend, Jody. After receiving an ultimatum from Ross, choose, either her husband or child, Rangi's mother forces him into the welfare system. He soon finds himself navigating a revolving cycle of foster homes and juvenile detention where he faces further abuse and torment at the hands of staff and other inmates. With his only ally Jody by his side, he escapes from every institution and facility to return home hoping his mother has a change of heart. Instead, it is dire consequences for Rangi, where he is cruelly beaten and returned every time by Ross.

Rangi is now older and is seeking revenge on his mum and Ross for all the pain and suffering they have caused. Rangi has discovered Ross has been up to no good, and he can prove it. His journey leads him to meet an assortment of different characters along the way where he learns the value of loyalty, and friendship and experiences betrayal, and receives unexpected help from the supernatural. Rangi travels through the gang underworld where he forms unlikely alliances who offer him protection and support.
