Stay Close is based on Harlan's 2012 bestselling psychological thriller novel of the same name.
It follows Megan Pierce (played by Cush Jumbo) — a woman seemingly living a picture-perfect life with her fiancé, Dave, and their three children.

Well, her quintessential world comes crashing down when Lorraine, a friend from her past, comes back to remind Megan of the wild life she left behind.

...and an ex-lover named Ray (played by Richard Armitage) who's still desperately obsessed with Megan.
