Summary
Adapted by Harlan Coben from his own novel, Run Away is an eight-part thriller about the trauma and secrets that bind a family but can also tear them apart. From the outside, Simon Greene (James Nesbitt) and his wife Ingrid (Minnie Driver) appear to have a perfect life but behind closed doors, there are chinks in the family's armour. His eldest daughter, Paige (Ellie de Lange), unexpectedly runs away from home and Simon launches a desperate search to locate her. Private investigator Elena Ravenscroft (Ruth Jones) is also looking for Paige and Simon must decide whether to trust her and work together to find his child

Review
David Brown
A slick Harlan Coben adaptation has become a New Year’s Day tradition and this latest doesn’t tamper with the format, dealing as it does with a family plunged into crisis following the disappearance of a loved one. In this case, it’s parents Simon (James Nesbitt) and Ingrid (Minnie Driver) who are entangled in all manner of nightmares when the chance to reunite with their missing daughter Paige (Ellie de Lange) takes a violent turn.
Seemingly respectable lives are soon revealed to exist cheek by jowl with society’s underbelly. And while you’ll want to discover the extent to which they’re enmeshed, those caught up in the dramas — including Ruth Jones’s private investigator and Alfred Enoch’s detective — do tend to feel like cogs in the plot rather than fully fleshed-out characters.
