β¦ Synopsis
Blair Bottoms journeys home after a tour of duty in Vietnam to discover the town he once knew is different. The Jersey Shore that bathed his childhood thoughts now appears corrupt and guilty. He never dreamed that through a tangled set of circumstances he would become an active participant in a web of lies, deceit, and murder.
When he meets the captivating Melissa Noon, Blair instantly falls in love. But his love for her may not be enough to save him from the tragic course he's created. In the end, Blair must choose between protecting the woman he adores and securing his fortune no matter the cost.
Red Star brilliantly shows how moral compromises can add up to a life completely changed and used in terrifying ways. It's about not losing our past-and believing in our future.
