Because I'm guilty, ' I blurted out.


Frank Johnson, a fictional character, has similar traits to a man in England who, in 2003, felt the need to admit to a murder he didn't commit. Frank's life of childhood trauma, joy and a happy marriage, takes a dramatic turn after an encounter with a troubled young woman.


As a result of police questioning and a court appearance, Frank shows his strengths and weaknesses in the face of pressures.


When a daughter with a strong personality offers Frank guidance to reinstate him within the family, he could take it or reinforce his comfort in the isolation he finds in his work as a house decorator.
