One night, a man approaches her outside the network studio and calls her "Marta." And in that instant, Laura knows that her last good night is over and what she's feared for so long has finally arrived.

But suddenly, she's facing every mother's nightmare.

Laura will have to risk her marriage, her career, her life, to save her baby. And finally face what happened that night so long ago...
