'Duo Ex Machina has a new album on the verge of storming the 2004 charts. Frank and Milo's promotion tour in Melbourne is hijacked by a serial killer stalking gay men - one of them an old friend from Milo's past.

'A new album is out, and Frank is producing too, helping former pop princess Gabriella Valli relaunch her career. Maybe this will be the comeback they've been looking for.

'Or it could be, if the mysterious letter-writing Number One Fan doesn't turn out to be dangerous as well as obsessed.'

'Frank and Milo were introduced in Fly By Night (1999), where they got caught up in crime for the first time - smuggling, murder and assault.

'Five years later, on the verge of The Big Time, Frank and Milo were tangled up in murder and kidnapping again in Sacrifice (2004). The first consequence of Milo's experiences was to out himself and Frank as a couple on national television.

'In 2009, Number One Fan explores the full consequences of the events of Sacrifice - anxiety disorders and the derailing of their music career - as well as the new directions Frank and Milo are taking now. Crime still loiters in the wings, however, or a type more often seen in the music industry: a stalker.

'So here we are in 2014, and Frank and Milo are still together, still in love, and with new challenges. They'd very much like to not be involved in any more violent crime, thanks. However, crime seems not to be quite done with them.'
