Her unexpected reappearance pushes her to reopen old wounds and explore mysteries that have long remained unsolved, notably surrounding the murder of her own father. With each revelation, Kat sinks deeper into a conspiracy that intertwines her past with secrets far greater than she imagined.
Detective Kat Donovan is caught up in a sinister conspiracy after accidentally reuniting with a childhood sweetheart online. Based on the novel by Harlan Coben.

Other members of the cast include Richard Armitage (Double Trap, Obsession) in the role of Ellis Stagger, and Sir Lenny Henry (The Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power) in that of Clint Donovan, Kat’s father.
