TRUE DARE KISS

(M) Drama

Sparky, raw and disturbing, True Dare Kiss is an unfolding saga of intrigue, passion, revenge and redemption by Debbie Horsfield, the acclaimed writer of Cutting It and many popular contemporary dramas.

When estranged father Stan dies in unexpected circumstances, a secret buried for two decades threatens to surface. His family are torn between the need to hush up the facts and a desire to uncover the truth behind the dreadful event that shattered the family 20 years before. A stranger since the events of that night, prodigal daughter Phil returns to find her childhood home unchanged but her family unrecognisable: eldest sister Nita's confident exterior belies a nagging fragility; feisty and foul-mouthed Beth contrives to terrorise everyone from her fellow football hooligans to her long-suffering teenage sons; reclusive brother Dennis' peculiar coping strategies hide an even deeper dysfunctionality; and tormented by persistent and sinister nightmares, Alice has barely aged or matured since that fateful night.

Forced to re-examine their actions, motives and even their memories, the siblings grapple with old rivalries and new desires in this vibrant, witty, and at times darkly comic, roller-coaster ride.
