A man seen running from the scene is captured and convicted, all the while proclaiming his innocence. Soon after, Robin's brothers go missing and are never found. Could the events have been related? Bound by tragedy, Robin makes his way through life trying his best to care for his mother and realize his dream of opening his own record store. Now, some forty years later, vinyl is dying and Robin is faced with closing his store. One day, while going through a box of his father's effects, he discovers proof his father once owned what is now the most valuable Beatles record in the world. But the LP is nowhere to be found!
