When brilliant TV news producer Virginia Knightly receives a disturbing “MISSING” notice on her desk related to the disappearance of a beautiful young attorney, she can’t seem to shake the image from her head.

Yet, as the only woman of power at her station, Knightly quickly finds herself investigating on her own.
