The true story that demands to be told.

The Richardsons are your average family of four who have endured more than your average share of heartache. After years of struggling with infertility, Amelie and Rob finally have their sons Freddie and Harry. Yet their journey leaves them with a desire to foster. When they welcome neglected toddler Charlie into their lives they feel as though the pieces have all finally come together.

But their happiness is short-lived. One night, Charlie appears unwell but the Richardsons struggle to identify what is wrong. By morning they head to A&E only to be told that Charlie has a serious leg fracture. With no explanation for the injury the Richardsons are accused of abuse. Charlie is taken from them and their own sons are placed in care.

Arrested for GBH and released under harsh bail conditions that leave them homeless and cut off from their boys, the couple must find the strength to fight both the child protection and legal justice systems to clear their names and reunite their family.

Can they uncover the truth behind Charlie's fracture before it's too late?
