Nursery’s Rhyme

Sometimes change can forge a path to a new beginning... Other times, it leaves a trail for your past to follow. Lawrence Rockefeller, known as 'Rock' to most, is doing his best to embrace the recent changes in his life: marriage, a newborn daughter, a promotion to Lead Detective, and a new work partner. At home, he’s struggling with the idea of being a 'family man' rather than a carefree bachelor. At work, he’s trying to earn the respect of his captain while learning to trust his new partner, Dixie. When a call comes in from a frantic mother reporting a missing infant, Rock believes it will be a simple custody case. His hope for an easy closure diminishes when Dixie finds three mismatched mittens strung across the window in the baby’s nursery. Rock knows this is a message from the kidnapper and after years of working missing persons’ cases, he’s aware of the limited amount of time he has to bring the child home alive.As the days and weeks pass by, more reports of missing infants come in and Rock finds himself falling victim to the emotional pull of the case. He’s battling a reporter determined to ruin his career, trying to find the person that’s been watching his wife and daughter for over a year, and uncovering secrets about his partner’s personal life, all while convincing his captain that he’s still capable of performing his duties.Upon receiving a letter threatening his family, Rock must determine whether it came from the stalker or the kidnapper looking for their final victim. His time is almost up.
