Indigo "Indie" Collins is a girl in Year Six who loves to day-dream. She lives with her mother, her mother's boyfriend Max and her baby sister Misti. Max and Indigo's mother keep arguing and their Mum becomes a victim of domestic abuse. One night, when it gets too much to handle, they move to a new flat.

When they move to the flat, they discover it is not a nice place at all.

Without much money and with only biscuits to eat, Indie's family have to fix up the flat and learn to survive. After a while Max physically injures Indie's mother and he is put on trial.
