A thriving law practice and a happy marriage are almost enough to convince solicitor Eric Ward he has overcome his painful past and started a new life.
All it takes is the wrong client for it all to unravel.
An investigative journalist beaten to a pulp.
A crooked Newcastle businessman living the high life in France.
A woman from a half-forgotten past.
