The series tracks various police departments as they attempt to follow up on missing cases.

In the first episode, in Macclesfield, Cheshire, a man reports his five-year-old son Tyler missing – he hasn't seen him in 2 years due to a custody dispute with the boy's mother.

However, things take a strange turn of events when the mother denies the existence of the child, and neighbours claim never to have seen the boy.
