In this legalistic Thriller Short, bestselling writer M. Diane Vogt pays homage to another legal eagle, Perry Mason. Karen Ann Brown is a young lawyer so disillusioned with the law's compromises that she decides to leave her job as a prosecutor and strike out on her own. Calling herself a "recovery specialist," Karen helps the victims of broken homes and ugly divorces. She's good at her job, but all her skills are challenged when she faces an adversary from her past, her ex-husband, Jeffrey. After killing his new wife and kidnapping their daughter, Jeffrey seems out of reach in Canada, but Karen hatches a bold rescue plan that will either return the missing girl or cost both the child and her their lives.
