The Committed — Justin Mermelstein

Could you sacrifice someone else's child to save your own? On a clear, chilly night in early spring, Arthur Parish's six-month-old daughter disappears from her crib without a trace, leaving no sign of foul play and no tangible evidence to assist police. With law enforcement at a standstill, Arthur immerses himself in the case, desperate to find even a trace of hope. But after turning to numerous vices to numb his pain and lashing out in frustration, his wife walks out on him, taking with her the last fiber of their family. It is then that a former client steps forward and takes responsibility for the abduction. But upon closer inspection, Arthur realizes there is more to the story than he could have ever imagined. Something evil. Something inhuman. And when he is presented with a sadistic choice to save his daughter's life, he will have to decide just how moral of a man he truly is.
