Summary

As the investigation into Marble Arvidson's disappearance heats up, it takes Josh and the team to a second nearby disappearance with some overwhelming connections to Keyes. And a theory the team considered several years ago, rears its very ugly head.

This episode was written, researched, edited, and produced by Josh Hallmark. 
With additional research assistance by: Jordan Taylor, Shana Wilensky, and Michelle Tooker.
