After seven years in prison, David Collins’ conviction for the murder of his wife is overturned on a technicality, or as his lawyer suggests, “an appalling miscarriage of justice”. David can now start his life again, repair his relationships with family and friends, see his children, and finally mourn for his wife, Tara. Well, at least this is what he had hoped for. From the outside, Tara and David had the perfect life: married for 10 years, two beautiful children, a large house and a successful business. To onlookers they were the stuff of dreams. However, to those close to them it was a different story: both drank too much, they had a failing business, were constantly arguing and, according to Tara’s sister, David had hit his wife on more than one occasion. So when Tara doesn’t return from a night out and is subsequently found murdered, tied to the bottom of a river bed, the community is shocked to its core.

Perhaps unsurprising then that when David returns many in his community continue to assert that there is no smoke without fire. And if David is innocent then the real culprit may still be at large - and living among them.
