THE PREMISE
Police detective Ian Ridley’s (Brammall) life fell apart 11 years ago when his young daughter, Maggie, disappeared without a trace. Now he works as a police dispatcher. The only thing that has kept him going is his implacable refusal to accept that she might be gone forever. When he receives a distress call from a teenage girl, whom he is certain is Maggie, everything changes. He will stop at nothing to find her and reunite his broken family, whatever the cost.
In addition to Brammall (“Colin from Accounts,” “The Devil Wears Prada 2,” “Evil”), the series also stars Maxine Peake (“Say Nothing,” “Black Mirror”), Brendan Cowell (“Dune: Prophecy,” “Plum”), Daniel Henshall (“Mickey 17,” “How to Make Gravy”), Zahra Newman (“Thirteen Lives,” “Addition”), Jessica Wren (“Mr. Inbetween,” “Devil’s Playground”), Tobias Muhafidin (“Bali 2002”).
