On June 28th, 1992, Doug Guyatt stepped outside his home in Colwood, British Columbia, to tidy up the yard.
The house was up for sale, and it needed to look presentable.
But that wasn’t the only weight hanging over Doug that day.
His wife, 34-year-old Shannon Guyatt, had been missing for nearly two weeks.
