Plot:
Hands down, cheerful vlogger and full-time stay-at-home single mom Stephanie Smothers is a force of nature and a true connoisseur of all things domestic. Always available to volunteer for more than one job in her son Miles' elementary school, buttoned-up Stephanie will see her picture-perfect life take an unexpected turn when she befriends glamorous fellow mom Emily Nelson, an elegant and cryptic New York City PR executive. As one thing leads to another after a series of boozy afternoons, curiosity turns into friendship, and before long, Emily asks a simple favor of Stephanie: to pick up her son Nicky from school. Then Emily goes missing, and as the hours turn into days, worried Stephanie decides to take action and embarks on a mission to shed light on Emily's unaccountable disappearance. Where is Emily?
