I am stumped on a Movie--Child was abducted--Need Help?!


Question: Folks, my wife and I are stumped and going insane. We can't think of the name of a movie.
Recap of what we know:
-Father is or was an FBI guy (main character-can't remmeber who it was). He lost his own kid (abducted years ago) and was working on another child abduction case.
-Come to find out--the FBI had either fired him/put him on leave?? because he was obsessed.
-He finds himself in a town in which a sheriff was told to hold him (father) till the FBI get their. The sherrif lets him go.
-At the end of the movie he find the child he was looking for and also finds his own kid. What we remember is that his own child was in thte backyard of a house in California (we believe).

Can you please stop the insanity at our house and tell us what the name of the movie is? Or who was in the movie?

Maybe Switchback (1997). Does it star Danny Glover and Dennis Quaid?
Here's the plot: F.B.I. agent Frank LaCrosse (Dennis Quaid) returns home to find his home has been broken into, his son is missing and Missy the babysitter is lying in a pool of her own blood. Her murder being the hallmarks of a elusive enigmatic serial killer whose slaughter spree...stretches nearly two years. Frank's desperate pursuit leads to Amarillo, Texas, where two more victims matching the killers M.O. have been found slashed to death. As Frank searches for his suspect, the local Sheriff Buck Olmstead and his Deputy Nate Booker investigate the killings in-between a heated election feud. All the while, a drifting former doctor Lane Dixon (Jared Leto) is picked up by ex-railroad man, Bob Goodall (Danny Glover). We learn that a local mechanic, 'Shorty' Callahan becomes the latest victim. Frank hopes and prays to find this sociopath before he disappears--perhaps forever into the rocky mountains. It turns out that Glover had kidnapped Quaid's son and had him living at a house where Quaid FINDS HIM IN THE BACKYARD IN CALIFORNIA, I think.
Here are the filming locations for the movie:
Colorado (particularly Pinecliffe), Texas, and Los Angeles, California, USA
