But with her husband on her trail, the clock is ticking, and she’s forced to make increasingly risky decisions if she ever hopes to be reunited with her daughter. Meanwhile, publishing executive Rebecca Whitney seems to have it all: a prestigious family name and the wealth that comes with it, a high-powered career, a beautiful home, a handsome husband, and an adopted Chinese daughter she adores. She’s even hired a nanny to help her balance the demands of being a working wife and mother. When an industry scandal threatens to jeopardize not only Rebecca’s job but her marriage, this perfect world begins to crumble and her role on her own family is called into question. “The Leftover Woman” finds the two unforgettable women on a shocking collision course. Twisting, suspenseful, and surprisingly poignant, this is a profound exploration of identity and belonging, motherhood and family. It’s a story of two women in a divided city- separated by severe economic and cultural differences yet bound by a deep emotional connection to a child.
