The Scent of Rain and Lightning
It’s a creepy cold case told from the point of view of the victims’ daughter. As a child, Jody’s father was murdered and her mother disappeared. The man convicted is set free 23 year later when his son grows up to be a lawyer and proves his innocence. But he’s not a nice guy at all. He’s a real nasty fellow and guilty of many things, just not the murder of Jody’s parents. Now imagine this piece of work returning to the small town that railroaded him into prison after being locked up for 23 years.
