Trivia
Based on the actual missing person investigation of Cari Farver in Pottawattamie County by the Pottawattamie County Sheriff's Office from November 2012 until May 2017.

Goofs
The movie is based on a true crime case and the real names were used for three of the main four characters - all except Dave's ex-wife whose real name is Amy Flora. Her name in the movie is Sarah Brower, but when the detective called Dave, near the end, when Liz was in his apartment, he told Dave that "Amy was seen by a neighbor the night of the shooting so she's cleared". The same detective pronounced Cari Farver's name as "Ferver" when he was explaining to Liz the evidence against her near the end.

Good story line, okay acting.

The movie based on a true crime, but the acting itself is just okay. Filmed in Manitoba is a plus for the Canadian film industry; however the script flow isn't so great. Lea Thompson does an okay job as Cari's mom, and not sure how the real-life story went, but I would think that the mom would be on the case with the cops. Alicia Witt does an okay job as Liz. She is better known as the love interest in Hallmark movies. The cops involved in the case sound really stupid and not tuned into real detective work in 2015. The only reason I watched to the end was to see how the movie ends. A time waster movie at best.
