Five adults have disappeared from Serenity, Tennessee, vanishing during ordinary trips around town. Now a sixth victim has been taken: a child. FBI Special Crimes Unit agents Lucas and Samantha Jordan arrive to investigate. Samantha reads psychic impressions while Lucas tracks missing people through his paranormal gift. They work alongside medium Dante Swann and telepath Robbie Hodge. The small mountain community teeters on the edge of hysteria as residents wonder who will disappear next. The investigation takes a deadly turn when a local police officer is murdered. Lucas and Samantha must use their abilities to locate the vanished before more lives are lost.
