If the worst has happened - the unimaginable - Elizabeth will never forgive herself. Then Joe's tiny blue sandal is found in the water. They are just footsteps from the ocean, and little Joe can't swim. Who squeezes her shoulder, ordering her to be quiet. The man who, right now, lies to the police, saying he was making breakfast when Joe disappeared. She was meant to protect Joe from her husband. The woman who has been trying to desperately get him back. She was meant to save Joe from his birth mother who almost harmed his chances at life. As she looks into the garden, where he was playing just moments ago, her heart feels like it has been ripped from her chest. The five-year-old, who adores superheroes and watching the birds outside, is the child she has dreamed of. 'My little boy, he's missing.' Elizabeth is Joe's foster mother, but she loves him like her own. In their holiday home, a stone's throw from the beach, Elizabeth dials the police with trembling hands.
