Just arrived in England, sweet, single American mom Ann Lake (Carol Lynley) is all a-bustle, making arrangements for her daughter Bunny’s first day at school. The camera follows her through the school hallways, as she seeks advice on where to deposit the child—in the First Day Rom, she’s been told, “Isn’t that a cute name for it?”—and how to manage her new household, money, and nosy landlord/part time BBC commentator Horatio Wilson (Noel Coward), who comes bearing his Chihuahua named Samantha.

Shortly after arriving in London, a temperamental, high-strung American (Carol Lynley) claims her 4-year-old daughter has disappeared from the school where she was dropped off earlier in the day. While methodically investigating, an initially sympathetic police superintendent (Laurence Olivier) discovers that the child was never enrolled at the school, her possessions have disappeared, and no one seems to have seen her since her arrival in England.

Single neurotic American mother Ann Lake (Carol Lynley) goes into near hysterics at finding out her four-year-old daughter Bunny Lake is missing when picking her up from her first day in an English school. No one, including her teacher and the headmistress ever saw her. With Ann's uppity but mentally unstable journalist big brother Stephen (Keir Dullea) soon at her side, the wise man analytical Superintendent Newhouse (Laurence Olivier) attempts to retrace the child's steps and when nothing checks out (there's no possessions of the child's in the Lake's upscale Hampstead flat and the alleged father of the baby is a married man who denies he sired a child) he begins to suspect that perhaps Bunny never really existed and is about to end the case when Ann discovers a doll repair claim ticket for her daughter in her possession.
