The protagonist, Steven M. Johns spent the entirety of the 1980s in jail. Unfortunately he had been convicted of a murder that he had not committed.
Rather than ignoring what had happened to him, Johns decides to set out on the path, after his successful appeal, to find out who had really committed the murder and to seek some measure of revenge on them for putting him in jail for a decade for a crime he didn't commit.
A fellow inmate gives him a list of people who might have been involved in the murder. And, after his release from jail, he seeks out the helped of his cherished Uncle Reg, Johns sets out to seek out those who framed him.
The search takes in a variety of locations including the Home Counties of England and all the way to the Gulf Coast of Florida.
However he finds himself enmeshed in a world of large scale money laundering and mortgage fraud.
He doesn't allow this to deter him, and he continues on his mission to trace and track down those who he believes were responsible for framing him for murder.
But the deeper he searches the more he realises that his investigations are throwing up some very worrying facts and that he risks causing damage to other people.
And who, exactly, can he really trust? But blood is thicker than water. It is, isn't it?
