Deception

How far does a family go to save their child's life? How far is too far?

The year is 2020. Families, businesses, jobs are sucked into a vortex of uncertainty as Covid 19 races from border to border around the globe. It was in this backdrop of destruction 10-year-old Nick Hampton found himself after kidney failure brought him to the best hospital in the Midwest. It wasn't long before he and his family were thrown into a whirlpool of deceit and an attempt by the hospital to remove Nick from his parents and take over guardianship. Was an inconceivable plan to stall transplant for financial gain really happening? Would an American hospital do this? One family member is ready to use any means - legal or not - to save Nick, even if it means working for the doctors who devised the plan tearing Nick's family apart. Can she pull it off? Throughout the medical and family troubles lurks the realization that only a miracle can save Nick's life.
