Gone Synopsis

Addie and Marcus have been in a relationship for nearly three years. Addie has recently been unhappy with how much time Marcus spends away from home for work reasons. The narrative begins when we see Addie on the phone to Marcus in the car, as they argue about this as well as her feelings about Marcus not being there when she needs him. Addie returns home and goes into her hot tub to relax from the stress she's been going through, but we soon see that someone is out to harm her. Whilst sat with her eyes shut, an unknown figure places a poisonous tablet in the hot tub which kills her within minutes.

The rest of the film is spent trying to discover why Addie is 'Gone'. Her brother, Tom, leads the search for clues about her death. He gets the police involved and tells them all about how she had been arguing with her boyfriend on the day of her death, and he makes them believe that it was Marcus who murdered Addie. Tom proves to the police that Marcus was not actually on a work placement in Leeds, he was in fact very near to Addie's location. However, as the film progresses, the spectator realises that it was Tom who killed Addie, and Marcus was actually coming back home early as a surprise for Addie, but Tom stopped him and killed him, and then proceeded to kill his sister.
