A mother imprisons her daughter in their basement to prevent bad choices, unaware she's recreating her own traumatic past. As neighbors notice the girl's absence, suspicion falls on the conflicted mother.

Detective Chief Superintendent Maurice Jobson is forced to remember the very similar disappearance of Clare Kemplay, who was found dead in 1974, and the subsequent imprisonment of local boy Michael Myshkin. Washed-up local solicitor John Piggott becomes convinced of Myshkin's innocence and begins to fight on his behalf, unwittingly providing a catalyst for Jobson to start to right some wrongs.
