Parental alienation, pedophilia, sexual crimes, sectarian excesses... Many of us have followed these chilling cases, symptoms of an era and the ills of our society. But once the denouement known and the media window closed, the investigation is just beginning.

Trough meetings with families incredible by their dignity and resilience, and moving testimonies of victims, "AMBER Alert" takes us to the other side of the screen to discover behind the scenes and understand the workings of a unique and colossal organization, in the manner of a crime fiction series.
