Damon’s grandparents were murdered 18 months before he was born. He never knew them, but their deaths — and the trial for their killer — defined much of his childhood.

For the first time in his life, Damon prepares to see his grandparents’ murderer face to face.  Support our independent production (and get bonus content galore!) by joining TTFA Premium.
