When Jodie catches sight of Daniel, a teenage boy, she is convinced she has found her missing son. Whether she is right or not, in that moment her spark of hope is ignited, and she commits to a dangerous and transgressive path that will take her to the edge of reason. How far will she go? How far would any of us go to find a missing child? Since losing her son eight years ago Jodie has been rebuilding her life but when she catches sight of Daniel it threatens to up-end the life that she has carefully pieced back together. His father Mark is an architect that keeps a tight rein on his emotions and on his son's life. Jason, Jodie’s only sibling, is the only real support she has had in her life. Always in control, he is a practising lawyer, on the cusp of a huge promotion. Lynn is Jodie's mother, with whom she has a fractious relationship. In this dangerous path that takes her to the edge of reason, how much is Jodie prepared to risk to find out the truth?
