And so it continues; different faces, different races, different countries but the atrocity continues around the world. Steve Saunders, an ex Army news cameraman, was repatriated from Vietnam back to Australia in the late 1970's suffering from Post Trauma Distress Disorder. Despite ongoing Psychiatric treatment his condition, although improving, continues to haunt him with ongoing nightmares and mental flashes mainly centred around the events of a young Vietnamese boy he encountered engulfed in flames. Steve, his girlfriend Sally and a young Vietnamese lad, Tan, an early "boat refugee" who saved Steve's life in Vietnam and who Steve subsequently sponsored in Australia, are unwittingly caught up in a deadly people smuggling racket when, unbeknown to Tan, his parents attempt to enter Australia as illegal refugees and become embroiled in a brutal, criminal organisation. Although endangering his recovery, Steve is driven to embark on a deadly mission to unmask the sophisticated criminal organisation which exposes the avenging trio to life threatening danger. Faced with corruption and action packed danger, the shattering secret behind The Burning Boy of Steve's nightmares is finally revealed.
