Winston Keats returned from the First World War psychologically damaged and unable to defend himself against accusations of crime. His former comrade Joseph Nunn tried to save him but instead sacrificed his own future and has lived ever since under a private sentence of guilt.
Clara believes both men were destroyed by a miscarriage of justice. Reopening the case requires her to challenge respectable testimony, wartime loyalty and the assumption that trauma makes a man unreliable or dangerous.
