On the one side, there's Paul Devereux, a powerful rich politician who always gets his way.
On the other, there's Isadora Dean, a rising star in television news journalism, who cannot believe that her baby girl, Bella, is dead.
Determined to find out the truth behind the disappearance of her baby girl, Izzie will come to the conclusion that her baby girl has ended up on the international black market, with the sinister and powerful hand of Paul Devereux behind it.
In the search for her daughter she stands alone against the power and money of Paul Devereux, and in the end those two worlds will clash, Izzie sure that Bella is alive and Devereux determined to silence Izzie for good.
What will follow is an exciting chase of cat and mouse, in which the mouse, Izzie, will escape the clutches of the cat, Devereux, and from my point of view, satisfaction will be done in a somewhat tame and unbelievable fashion in the end.
Recommended, for those who like a rather uncomplicated story about the sale of a child and the consequences that will bring to the mastermind behind it all, but for me this is unbelievable tame tale and that's why I like to call it: "A Mediocre Touch Of Innocents"!
