Bright but inexperienced attorney Mitchell Taylor is torn between warring personal and professional interests. Can he help his client, a young surrogate mother, and save the child she carries without sealing the fate of others? When Dr. Nathan Brown and his wife, Cameron, undergo a controversial method of in-vitro fertilization, some of their cloned embryos are used to achieve a pregnancy in surrogate Maryna Sareth while the others are cryogenically preserved. Dr. Brown's premature death, however, and mounting evidence that the baby has Down's Syndrome unleash a legal, ethical, and moral firestorm. Dr. Brown's dying wish is that the remaining embryos be used for stem cell research. His wife wants to force the abortion of the baby Maryna carries in hopes that one of the remaining embryos can produce a "healthy" child.

  • "Mitchell Taylor, who is a star law student and a determined Christian, gets himself into a mess when he ends up working for the worst kind of personal injury lawyer. Mitchell is unwilling to give up on his job because of his strong Christian background, but gets himself into an even bigger heap of trouble when a case he's working on gets involved with eight frozen embryos. Mitchell finds himself in a bind where he strongly opposes what is going on and really isn't sure what to do."
