What if pleading guilty to the murder of your own child was the only way to prove your innocence?

Ten years ago Claudia had exactly the life she wanted - married to her first love, the man of her dreams, with a 10-month-old daughter, Tilly. But one day, during a moment of inattention, Tilly was taken from her, and Claudia eventually found herself jailed for the murder of her own child.

Now she has finally confessed in order to secure parole so she accomplish the only thing that matters to her: find her daughter, dead or alive, and punish the person who took her.

More than one person has something to lose by Claudia's release - but only one is frightened enough to kill.
