The scenario, inspo and trailer from its international broadcast on streamer Peacock:

When Marissa Irvine goes to pick up her young son Milo (Duke McCleod) from his first playdate with a boy at his new school, the woman who answers the door has never seen or heard of either Marissa or her son - beginning every parent's worst nightmare.

As Marissa and her husband Peter (Jake Lacy - The White Lotus, Apples Never Fall) begin a desperate search for their son, their family starts to come apart at the seams.

With new friend Jenny Kaminski (Dakota Fanning) the only person that Marissa can count on, the two women form a close and unlikely alliance.

Together they hunt for Milo, uncovering deep family secrets that alter the course of both their lives forever.

Charged with finding Milo and bringing the kidnappers to justice, Detective Alcaras (Michael Peña, Landman, Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan) unravels the complex and frightening web of deception and lies that have ensnared both the Irvine and Kaminski families, but his moral code is stretched to breaking point.

The series is based on Andrea Mara's 2021 novel of the same name, inspired by an event in April 2015 when she went to pick up her then-5-year-old daughter, only to find the home at the address she’d been given, empty.

A woman from next door informed the author that nobody lived at the residence where she thought her daughter was playing, but the bottom stopped falling out of her world when the neighbour told her the family had moved two streets over, and she'd be happy to give Mara their new address.
