Single mother Marissa stands in her daughters untidy room. Olivias phone is still charging at the wall and her clothes are still hanging in her closet. The mirror above her daughters desk is cracked and a message written in red ink reads Never Forget.
As FBI special agent Max Carter is called in to investigate, he delves into the lives of Marissa and her quiet, studious teenage daughter, and soon discovers that Olivia has been lying to her mother. Not only did she have a secret boyfriend, but she had also been talking to her guidance counsellor in the weeks before she disappeared. What was so big that Olivia couldnt tell?

And when he uncovers a family secret that could put the teenagers life in danger, its clear that time is running out for Marissas beloved daughter.
