Stefan Claassen is an adventurous young architect who is hurled into chaos when an ill-fated chance encounter with his long-lost love not only reignites his feelings for her but drags him into a web of deceit when she disappears.

Christo Davids says: “We are certain that viewers will enjoy Spoorloos: Die Eiland as much as the previous seasons. This season will, as with the previous seasons, keep the viewers guessing.”
