Stockholm Syndrome

Two doctors. One killer. One woman in labour.

A killer infiltrates the obstetrics ward of a Montreal hospital, taking one pregnant woman and one resident doctor hostage at gunpoint.

Dr. Hope Sze struggles to deliver her patient's baby with blood on the floor and death in the air.

And when Dr. Tucker tries to rescue their tiny crew, only to end up hostage material alongside them, Hope's heart just might break, even before the kidnapper drills a bullet through her skull.
