In May 2012, twenty one year old Nicola Furlong was living her dream. A Wexford girl studying in Japan as part of her degree with Dublin City University, she was counting down the weeks until she came home that July. On the 23rd of May she travelled to Tokyo with a friend for the night.
She never came home.
This is the story of who Nicola was, what happened in Tokyo, and the fight her family carried into a Japanese courtroom thousands of miles from Curracloe.
