The Stolen Girl

Elisa is a mother juggling two kids and a nagging worry about the company her daughter Lucia keeps. After a chance meeting at a sunlit house, Josephine's mother Rebecca invites Lucia to spend the night. Elisa agrees, hoping the new friendship might be a good thing for her daughter. But the next day, she shows up at the supposedly welcoming home only to find an empty luxury rental, pristine as a showroom, with Lucia nowhere to be found. The shock shatters Elisa's sense of safety and forces her to question the adults in Lucia's life, the costs of keeping up appearances, and what a child can know about danger.

Directed by Eva Husson, with creators Catherine Moulton and Alex Dahl, The Stolen Girl arrives in 2025 as a moody drama mystery series that threads personal grief with a tightly wound domestic thriller, anchored by sharp performances.

Critics likely note a tense, character driven investigation that refracts a mother's resolve through a fog of secrets. The show explores trust and memory as Elisa, played by Denise Gough, confronts a world where wealth and danger intersect, while Rebecca, played by Holliday Grainger, looms as a complex foil.
