The cast

Leigh Murray, Matt – A young man who causes a fatal car accident in which both his parents are killed. Matt is now the sole guardian of his younger sister, Ally. After Ally goes missing, his efforts to rescue her are hampered by the mishandling of the investigation into the accident.

Ashleigh Cummings, Ally – Ally is the younger sister of Matt. Her relationship toward her brother is distant; after the car accident their relationship spirals. Her empathy for the woman in the other car is her undoing, as she becomes her captive.

Tracy Maxwell, Trixie – Wise beyond her years, Trixie's main source of income comes from sex work. One night on the job she meets Matt and her life changes forever.
