Norman Beech, depressed and alone, is back on the
bottle. Struggling to fight his addiction, the forty-eight-year-old unemployed engineer turns to AA for help. He begins his
recovery, unaware that his life is about to be turned upside down, as three strangers make their appearance.
Thomas
Banks, a diminutive veteran homicide detective, believes that Beech is guilty of murder and has been playing him for the fool;
he will stop at nothing to see justice done.
Tino
Falcone, a good cop and devoted family man, is concerned about his partner, Banks. The hulking former offensive tackle tries
to do his job while covering the little man's blindside.
Debra
Kayly, an attractive thirty-five-year-old blonde, is on the run from authorities. Fearful that her past may catch up with
her, she is living on a remote island in Lake Huron.
Beech overcomes his difficulties and is riding the wave of
success. His future looks bright indeed after he builds his dream house overlooking the Chesapeake Bay. Slowly, almost imperceptably,
things begin to change for the worse. Like a powerful magnet attracting distant iron filings, NORMAN'S COMFORT begins to draw
in its victims with tragic consequences.
