A playful remix of Dante's Inferno, Abandon delves into the passion and perils of internet dating following the twisted tale of two Irish sisters searching for love online. Set in Peckham, this modern romcom is one of lustful encounters, dating site mishaps, sly online affairs, Facebook stalking and wicked plots for revenge. Bohemian artist and flaming redhead Aine encounters insanely wealthy financial advisor to the stars Clyde, whose arrogant charm fires her through the Inferno's spiralling circles of lust, gluttony, violence and treachery. Meanwhile, elder sister Ciara, a politically disengaged Westminster advisor aiming to be the ultimate sex goddess, dates much younger PhD student Phillip. But her life is turned upside down by Aine's tempestuous relationship. In this story of lust, love and rivalry will anyone break through to the other side and find their Paradiso?
