Can a mother love her daughter to death?

Some would say Becky Gerard is a devoted mother. Others, including her husband, would say she's obsessed with her daughter.

Fifteen-year-old Meghan is constantly, inexplicably ill. Her doctors are starting to suspect Munchausen syndrome by proxy - they believe Meghan's mother is seeking medical help for symptoms that don't exist. But when Meghan's illness takes a sharp turn, it is no longer clear whether her mother is lying, or if something even more sinister is at hand...

Becky must race against time to prove her daughter is in danger. But first, she must confront secrets that threaten to not only upend her life... but destroy it.
