Filmmaker Morgan James is finishing her first feature film about the pain and joy of adoption when her personal life shatters. Her partner Steve, longing for perspective, leaves New York for Central America to photograph democratic transitions, while Morgan faces the devastating reality of her own infertility. Determined to find a way to become a mother, she interviews Carly Grove, a single woman who miraculously adopted a healthy infant through a mysterious organization called Children of Light, led by the enigmatic Dr. Alex Goddard.
Driven by her desperation, Morgan visits Dr. Goddard's sanctuary, Quetzal Manor, to seek a solution to her inability to conceive. However, her investigation uncovers a chilling operation involving illegal pharmaceuticals, secret nurseries, and a massive supply of Caucasian babies of unknown origin.
At the same time, her cousin Sarah, a brilliant former medical student who survived a horrific car crash, resurfaces after a mysterious disappearance in Guatemala, only to be drawn back into the web of Dr. Goddard's network. As Morgan digs deeper, she is stalked by a Guatemalan military attaché and targeted by powerful men determined to protect their secrets. When Sarah is kidnapped from her father's care, Morgan flies to Guatemala City to track her down, aided by her rekindled relationship with Steve. Confronting corruption, danger, and the terrifying truth behind Children of Light, Morgan realizes that uncovering the ultimate secret of Quetzal Manor could cost her everything.
