Antonia Weblock, a successful businesswoman, has her little daughter kidnapped. Antonia’s cousin, Trish McGuire, is devastated because, on the one hand, she loves the child dearly, and on the other, as a lawyer who deals with cases involving violence against children, she perfectly understands what such disappearances can lead to. She begins her own investigation—especially since the police put Trish on the list of suspects, so not only Charlotte’s life is in danger, but also Trish’s own freedom.
