Finally back home, Tom takes care of Eddie and his friends,who are living in a veterans hospital. It appears as if Tom leads a normal live again, but actually he’s troubled by feelings of survivor's guilt. This not only affects his mind, but also judgement, causing him to accept the offer to commit a murder so he is able to financially care for his brother. Besides, having to deal with his past, he meets a woman who seems to have secrets of her own.
