Le 14 octobre 2011, deux pour cent des êtres humains ont disparu de la surface de la Terre de manière inexplicable. Les habitants de la petite ville de Mapleton sont confrontés à cette disparition lorsque nombre de leurs voisins, amis et amants s'évanouissent dans la nature en un instant. Trois ans plus tard, la vie a repris son cours dans la bourgade dépeuplée, mais rien n'est plus comme avant. Personne n'a oublié ce qu'il s'est passé ni ceux qui ont disparu. Certains tentent de comprendre, d'autres d'oublier, ou de se souvenir. Chacun va devoir faire face à l'effondrement de ses croyances, au deuil.
