Custody Charles Foti

A precious nine-month-old baby sleeps soundly in her crib after enjoying her warm bath. As she drifts into her sweet slumber, her young father is downing beers at the local pub. The father harbors a dark secret and will soon face a custody battle for the child that is launched by the loving, maternal grandparents. His in-laws see him as immature and irresponsible, but would they fight even harder to protect their only grandchild if they were aware of the darkness within their son-in-law's past? Custody is a character-driven story involving the lives of a myriad of characters and criminals who suffer or die due to circumstance and karma. The sins and fantasies of the child's father haunt him to the point of desperation. This tale of twists and traumas culminates with a judge's decision for custody and the effects of the legal battle upon dozens of family, friends, and foes.
