Mothers, Puppets and Thieves

Mothers, Puppets, and Thieves is a dramatic story where different worlds connect through passion, revenge, and crime. Imagine Martha Stewart's Living meets 50 Cent's Get Rich or Die Trying twisted into a fictional tale. Silvia Cooke is the super soccer mom. From food to transportation and everything in between, she does it to the extreme. A graduate of the interior and culinary arts, she put her career on hold for the dream. Living with three adorable children, a doting husband, in an affluent lifestyle, she prepares their dinner routine. A simple phone call interrupts their meal to create a whirlwind of events. She disappears, is arrested, and tried for the ultimate steal. Now, Sylvia must fight to regain her normal. Ant and his buddies are just teens living in the city. School, music, drugs, and similar crime teach them that sacrifices pave the road for living pretty. Paul and Matt work late night at the lab. Coworkers on opposite sides—the custodian cleans and the chemist makes a mess. This mayhem makes them the glue that binds Sylvia and the boys in this story of love, crime, and dreams.
