Family members of Kenya Monge describe the agonising details surrounding the 19-year-old's disappearance. #TextMeWhenYouGetHome became a worldwide movement following the 2021 death of Sarah Everard in the U.K. The hashtag sparked global awareness, anger and a conversation around the vulnerability and lack of safety women feel while in public alone. In this true-crime docuseries, each episode follows the case of a woman who has been abducted, harmed or even murdered by someone on what was an otherwise average day in her life. These stories are told through interviews, re-creations, texts, phone records and other digital breadcrumbs that authorities used to solve the case. Unfolding as a whodunnit, all suspects are explored until the actual perpetrator is caught. In several episodes, survivors of these harrowing sagas tell their stories in their own words.
