After the son of a mayoral candidate is kidnapped, the candidate and his wife have only a few hours to find the ransom. With most of their money tied up in the campaign, they must take desperate steps that bring hidden parts of their lives into view.

My take

You may like this if you enjoy crime dramas driven by urgent deadlines, family stakes, and desperate choices; Not for you if you prefer lighter stories or plots with plenty of detail up front.
