Jillian Marsh is a survivor who escaped a toxic upbringing with her religious zealot mother. After battling alcoholism in her twenties, she achieved sobriety, a successful marriage, and a medical career, though she couldn't fully atone for her past mistakes. Nearly a decade later, her life spirals downward when her wife, Rochelle, leaves her while she is pregnant with Rochelle's biological child. Jillian feels increasingly unsettled in her empty home, noticing items out of place, candles lit without her memory, and a removed screen from her bedroom window. Her support group for expectant mothers, once a source of solace, begins to fracture as secrets among the women surface. Jillian, Bree, Camille, and Maggie had pledged to support each other in motherhood, sobriety, and independence, but their sisterhood is tested. As strange occurrences escalate, Jillian questions the trustworthiness of her friends and wonders if Rochelle is gaslighting her for custody of their daughter. She fears she might be mirroring her mother's behavior, imagining threats against her unborn child. When the missing items turn into clear threats, Jillian realizes she must do whatever it takes to protect her baby.

With one call, her daughter’s life is on the line. Laurie Ahmadi has worked as a 911 police dispatcher in her quiet Northern California town for almost two decades, but nothing in her nearly twenty years of experience could prepare her for the worst call of her career—her teenage daughter, Jojo, is on the other end of the line. She is drugged, disoriented, and in pain, and even though the whole police department springs into action, there is nothing Laurie can do to help. Jojo, who has been sexually assaulted, doesn’t remember how she ended up at the home of Kevin Leeds, a pro football player famous for his work with the Citizens Against Police Brutality movement, though she insists he would never hurt her. And she has no idea where her best friend, Harper, who was with her earlier in the evening, could be. As Jojo and Laurie begin digging into Harper’s private messages on social media to look for clues to her whereabouts, they uncover a conspiracy far bigger than they ever could have imagined. With Kevin’s freedom on the line and the chances of finding Harper unharmed slipping away, Laurie and Jojo begin to realize that they can’t trust anyone to find Harper except themselves, not even the police department they’ve long considered family . . . and time is running out.
