This started off as a very interesting show from the UK. You are drawn in feeling for the mother who does not know if her son drowned or was abducted at the lake where he disappeared was fully searched, dragged, and no body found. You feel for even more for her when you learn that when her son disappeared while her husband was having a affair with her friend at the lake. Her parents who were also at the lake with them are so indifferent they the did not watch child and her brother says he was distracted while Tom was playing at the waters edge , to see if drowned or was abducted. Almost 10 years later the mother while on her way to a business meeting sees a child at bus stop that is the right age as her son would be, looks like him and even has a scar under his eye like her sons. She goes to see her EX as they are now divorced and has married the woman he was cheating on her with. He says she must be wrong their son is dead! She goes to the police who rebuff her claim saying she wrong and should seek mental help to deal with her son being dead. Her family does the same her mother is the worse by insisting that her daughter must realize her son is dead and she needs to face the facts. Declare him dead and move on for until she accepts he dead she is holding the whole family back! Not daunted by her family see finds a way to get a position at the school where the boy she feels is her son goes to. While the boys current dad keeps acting suspiciously. Trying to keep what happened his wife secret and refusing to let the son who is now called Daniel from knowing anything about his mother and why she is not with them. By the third installment it looks like woman could be right that he is her son or has gone mental as she makes plans to take the boy away from the UK going as far as getting him a fake passport! By time of the forth and last installment the whole thing quickly unwinds and becomes anticlimactic with a strange ending that is not fully closed!
