"The novel (set in the suburbs of Dublin, but moved to Chicago for the series) begins with an accomplished lawyer named Marissa attempting to pick up her son, Milo, from a playdate. She set it up via text with her new mom friend, Jenny, but is disturbed to learn that she was given a fake address. In fact, she was never texting with Jenny at all."
"Following a week-long investigation, Milo is found safe in an empty car. The 4-year-old recalls being treated well in captivity. Though curiously, Carrie dyed his blond hair brown. Shortly after Milo's return, Carrie is found dead in the house where she'd kept him. Her boyfriend, Kyle, is killed, too, followed by her father and Colin, Marissa's friend and business partner, who had briefly dated Carrie."
An accomplished lawyer named Marissa attempts to pick up her son Milo from a playdate and discovers a fake address and that her son has been taken by a nanny, Carrie.

Carrie is later discovered dead at the house where she kept Milo; several people connected to her are subsequently killed, including her boyfriend, her father, and Colin, Marissa’s friend and business partner. Milo recalls a masked man calling him “Milo Mouse,” a nickname only his father, Peter, used, and Peter admits involvement. Carrie had lost a newborn in a prior car accident and became fixed on getting close to Milo.
