Lidé se ztrácejí každou chvíli – většina z nich uteče od nepříjemností, další se jim naopak řítí vstříc a jen někteří si najdou cestu zpátky. Leigh Fletcherová – šťastně vdaná nevlastní matka dvou úžasných chlapců. Její manžel Mark tvrdí, že nemá ponětí, kde se jeho žena nachází. Jednoduše odešla do práce a už se nikdy nevrátila domů. Rodina je naprosto zdrcená. Kai Janssenová – šťastně vdaná za bohatého holandského podnikatele Daana. Odešla z jejich luxusního londýnského bytu i oslnivého života bez ohlédnutí. A pak jako by se propadla do země. Daan je strachy bez sebe. Dvě pohřešované ženy pocházejí z naprosto odlišných světů – je možné, že spolu jejich zmizení souvisejí?
