'Right, stop here and start digging.'
'Please, Mr Carmichael?' Carl begged. 'I'll tell you everything you want to know. You don't need to do this.'

VICTIM
September 1989: Beth Roper is a single mother struggling to earn enough money to take care of her four year-old daughter, Lauren. One night, she is followed home by a stranger who forces his way in and brutally assaults her whilst her daughter sleeps in the next room.
ATTACKER
May 1993: Known deviant, Nathan Green is on trial for the violent assault of two women and the murder of a third. The trial forces the victims to confront the man whose eyes they will never forget. He is eventually sentenced to life in prison, but it doesn't feel like justice for one of the victims.
ACCUSER
November 2013: Following her mother's passing, a now adult Lauren Roper hires Private Investigator Johnson Carmichael to prove that it was Nathan Green who assaulted her mother back in 1989. The trouble is Nathan Green has just been murdered by a fellow inmate during a prison riot.
With no evidence, no witnesses and only the fragile memory of the client to work with, this is a case Carmichael doesn't want. However, when he begins to ask questions and his life is threatened, he learns there is more to Lauren's claims than first thought.
