Young Jimmy Higgins is snatched from an airport security checkpoint while his guardian watches helplessly from the glass inspection box. But this is no ordinary abduction, as Jimmy is no ordinary child. His mother was Scarlett, a reality TV star who, dying of cancer and alienated from her unreliable family, entrusted the boy to the person she believed best able to give him a happy, stable life: her ghost writer, Stephanie Harker. Assisting the FBI in their attempt to recover the missing boy, Stephanie reaches into the past to uncover the motive for the abduction. Has Jimmy been taken by his own relatives? Is Stephanie's obsessive ex-lover trying to teach her a lesson? Has one of Scarlett's stalkers come back to haunt them all?
"Stephanie Harker is travelling through the security gates at O'Hare airport, on her way to an idyllic holiday. Five-year-old Jimmy goes through the metal detector first. But then, stuck on the other side of security, she watches in panic and disbelief as a uniformed agent leads her boy away. The authorities, unaware of Jimmy's existence, become alerted by Stephanie's erratic behaviour. She finds herself brutally wrestled to the ground, and restrained - before she can finally inform them what has happened...and Jimmy is long gone. However, as Stephanie tells her story to the FBI, it's evident that this seemingly normal family is not what it seems. What is Jimmy's background? Why would someone abduct him? And, with time running out, how can Stephanie get him back?"
