About this episode

Not long before Ada went missing, another nearby mom named Linda VanBuskirk mysteriously disappeared during a routine walk on a warm March day. As her family and police launch a desperate search, a young boy’s chilling eyewitness account and the discovery of Linda’s body in a shallow grave send shockwaves through the community - while police wonder if Linda’s murder might be connected to Ada disappearance.
