Publisher's Synopsis
Drama set in New Zealand during World War II in which a nurse and a soldier on separate quests find their paths interlinking. Nurse Kelly Towne (Kerry Fox) has the unglamorous job of attempting to keep venereal disease in check on a part of New Zealand where US service personnel mingle freely with the local population. Her job becomes markedly more urgent when an infection breaks out that seems beyond any cure. Meanwhile, Captain Michael Starwood (Tony Goldwyn) of the US Marines is investigating the murder of a soldier in suspicious circumstances. As Towne and Starwood become familiar with each other's search for answers, parallels between the two cases lead them to believe they may be dealing with something for more sinister than they suspected...
