Hello Darlin’

Nine years after an armed robbery, everyone wants the missing gold. Les Dalton insists there is no stash, but nobody believes him.

Short synopsis

Armed robber Les Dalton is released on parole and returns to a world that has been waiting nearly a decade for one answer: where is the unrecovered gold? Shadowed by a retired detective and pulled back into danger by people closest to him, Dalton tries to rebuild his life while violence closes in around him and a long-buried truth turns deadly.
