The hardest part of going to war is coming home to face yourself.
The tale of a man and the memory that haunts him, River City One is
the poetic and compassionate story of John Walker, a lawyer and
ex-Marine adrift in a nameless city. Home from the war, he has
become a man on the edge, quietly raging against the people he must
now work for and live among—the kind of people incapable of
understanding the terror he felt in combat and the guilt he carries
in his heart. When he meets Ruth, a beautiful, famous singer
travelling through the city, John discovers a new passion for
living. But as the lies pile up, he takes more and more foolish
risks to hold onto his family and the newfound love that threatens
them both. Moving and lyrical, River City One is the story of a man
discovering that the hardest part of going to war is coming home to
face yourself.
