Eleven years ago Detective Kat Donovan's fiancé Josh - the love of her life - disappeared and she's never heard from him since. Now, swiping profiles on a dating app, she suddenly sees his face and her world explodes all over again.

In keeping with previous Harlan Coben adaptations, Missing You will relocate the story from the US to the UK. Filming has now started around Manchester and the North West of England.
