It's the same old story... Boy meets girl; boy falls for girl; girl gets pregnant; boy gets suspicious; boy cuts off policeman's head with a samurai sword. Eighteen years later, and Jake Springall is getting out of prison. Archie Springall, the son Jake has never spoken to, wants answers. Liz Springall, the wife Jake left behind, wants to pretend it's not happening. Jimmy Fielding, the policeman whose partner was killed, and the boyfriend of Liz Springall, wants to finally feel a sense of resolution. But as Jake makes his entrance back into their lives, they discover there was more to that fateful day in 1983 than they had previously thought, and a search for the truth begins.
