Eleven-year old Karin is blindfolded and dropped into the Hoge Veluwe National Forest with three other children. With nothing but a few basic supplies and food to last a couple days, the children are tasked with working together to navigate one of the Netherlands' most beautiful and wild locations and return home to where their families are anxiously waiting.

The youngest of the group and distracted by her own thoughts, Karin lags behind, suddenly looking up to see that the other children have vanished.

As Karin struggles against the elements to find her way back, she soon realizes that something far more sinister lurks in the woods.

Meanwhile, the parents are reeling from the knowledge that none of the children have returned. The authorities are alerted and the news media descends, turning the disappearances into a public frenzy. Amidst the chaos and hysteria, Karin's mother is facing threats of her own, making her doubt who she can trust. Will she be able to untangle this web of false leads and fake news to find her daughter-before it's too late?
