After he returned to England from Vietnam, Tom made a new life. He married, became a father, and started a successful career in business. It seemed that he had forgotten the nightmare of the past. But more than thirty years later, a trivial encounter with the police began a catastrophic chain of events. He lost everything - his family, his home, his self-respect. In trying to rebuild his life, Tom had once more to confront those traumatic memories that he had buried so deep. His terrifying yet inspiring journey is the story of this book
