And the price of betrayal.

 

Sara is sixteen and pregnant. Her once-devoted boyfriend seems to have
have disappeared, and her only option seems to be an open adoption
with George and Eva, an older couple desperate for a child.

But after the birth, it's clear Sara has a bond with the child that Eva can't seem to duplicate. And when Sara can't let go, Eva and George make a drastic decision with devastating consequences for all of them.
