Geschichte
Tom Stall, a mild-mannered diner owner in Millbrook, Indiana, becomes an overnight sensation after defending his customers against two armed criminals in a self-defense incident. The media labels him a local hero, but Tom wants nothing more than to return to his quiet life with his wife, Edie, and their two children. However, when a mysterious man named Carl Fogarty arrives in town, recognizing Tom as someone from his past, it becomes clear that Tom's history isn't what it seems. Tom is forced to confront his past, protect his family, and fight against those who believe he has a 'history of violence'.
