Summary
When Helen Bailey and her adorable dog Boris don’t return home, it takes her fiancé, Ian, 4 days to contact the authorities to report her missing. He claims that she left a note saying she took the dog to their vacation home because she needed “space”, but police aren’t able to find any trace of Helen or Boris. As the investigation continues, no one is prepared for what happens next.
