How well do you really know your neighbours?

In the English village of Heathcote the temperature - and the sense of unease - is rising.

As the search for Anna gathers pace, suspicions grow and secrets are revealed. Surely one of the villagers can't be responsible? But then can you ever really know what's going on behind closed doors...
