A synopsis for the programme reads: "Two people have fallen from the top of a tower block in south east London – a veteran beat cop and a teenage girl. Left alive on the roof are rookie police officer Lizzie Adama and a five-year-old boy.
"Within hours, Lizzie has disappeared, and Detective Sergeant Sarah Collins is charged with leading the investigation. She not only has to track down Lizzie before she comes to serious harm, but also to uncover the truth behind the grisly deaths.
"What chain of events took two police officers and two children to the roof of that tower block? Why did two of them die? Why did two of them survive?"
