Erik and Alan, were eight year old boys sitting in the balcony of The Opera House, when they witnessed two men they knew, shoot and kill a man they did not recognize. They told their fathers what they had seen and were warned to never say anything to anyone.
Erik talked to a neighbor he trusted. Within weeks, that man died from an apparent fall. He left behind a widow and an infant daughter.
Power and ambition are old themes, to be sure. In a small town they can be especially precarious. 'Nothing ever happens around here', becomes the perfect camouflage.
Erik grew up. That day forgotten, he left town. Alan, remained and never forgot that day. A class reunion will reconnect them with the past.
They will gain new respect for the strength of the pioneer spirit.
They will find men willing to betray their country for riches and power.
They will learn how a small town half way around the world was connected to the local events.
They will understand that friendship, integrity and honor are the most valuable assets anyone can have.
