Just Another Missing Person

Julia Day sends her daughter, Genevieve, to buy their movie tickets while she takes a work call in the parking garage. As she finishes the call, Genevieve runs up, looking disheveled, and holds out a bloodstained hand, asking for Julia’s help.

“First Day Missing”

Julia, a police detective, is at dinner with her daughter, Genevieve, and husband, Art. A man at a nearby table reminds her of someone she put in jail for murder, and she googles his name under the table. Genevieve teases Art about his restaurant choice while Julia looks on, unsure of how she feels about her husband. Julia gets a call from work about a missing woman and departs for the police station. She asks Genevieve and Art to note the suspicious man’s license plate number.

At the station, she encounters her long-time informant Price. He won’t tell her why he’s there, but she makes him a cup of tea and goes to her office. Her team comes in and begins their investigation into Olivia Johnson, a 22-year-old woman who has been missing for a day. Julia’s right-hand man, Jonathan, arrives. She trusts him completely.

Looking over Olivia’s file, Julia is reminded of a similar case from last year, when a woman named Sadie went missing.
