|---|
"When Rachel Belmore's perfect world is shattered one night upon discovering her husband abusing their baby daughter, her ordeal has just begun. The legal system to which she turns for help becomes the enemy in a harrowing struggle to protect her daughter. Soon, in a wrenching race against time, the safety of one child is entangled in the theatrics of family court, bottled-up family dynamics, media frenzy, and the pressure of the political machine.
"
