Matt Roush says...
The emotionally charged NCIS prequel, set in 1991, confronts the plight of Vietnam War veterans who’ve fallen off the grid when a homeless vet is killed by a brick to the head. This triggers team leader Mike Franks (Kyle Schmid) to revisit his own war experience, in this case the dark years after returning home, when an ill-fated motorcycle trip led to his life-saving meeting with his soulmate, Tish (Tonantzin Carmelo). In the present, Franks’ secret crusade to find Tish’s attacker causes turbulence on the home front, while rookie Gibbs (Austin Stowell) considers his own uneasy adjustment to post-war life.
