In a city scarred by conflict, secrets can kill and trust is a dangerous gamble.
Psychologist Aaron Thornton is riddled with self-doubt after failing to stop a tragic incident at the American prison where he works. So when his wife, Claire, receives a job offer in her native Belfast, Northern Ireland, he sees a chance to start over by treating hardened criminals in Northern Ireland's judicial system.
But Thornton's work soon entangles him in the aftermath of 'The Troubles, ' a brutal conflict that rocked Belfast for over thirty years. Charged with overseeing the release of the Irish Republican Army's deadliest bomb maker, Thornton reignites smoldering feuds that threaten to consume him and his family in the flames of political violence.
Alongside a broad cast of characters who reflect the many facets and shifting allegiances of The Troubles, Thornton fights to heal long-standing hatred and prevent another tragedy. But can he save himself?
