It's the perfect getaway. But the past will always find you...

When ex-cop Bill Robinson takes over The Inn by the Sea, all he wants is a quiet escape from the city.

But when a crime boss moves into town and begins terrorising Bill's friends, he can't just sit back and watch.

It's not long before local criminals are turning up dead and The Inn comes under attack.

With the help of The Inn's fearless residents, Bill must do everything he can to defend his town, his chosen family, and his home.
