They say all roads lead to Rome, but the M6 leads to a ransacked family home and a mouse drowned in gravy. When 40-year-old Ken picks up a younger man at the service station, he soon realises Rory is looking for a different type of ride.

After a short drive to Ken s recently inherited home, Rory makes a play for Ken s family jewels, only to discover Aunt Ivy s already been in and whisked them away. This home certainly isn t where his heart is, and it s not just the skeletons coming out of the closet.
