In the summer of 1981, a woman vanished from her family's Illinois
farm without a trace. There were no signs of a struggle, no
witnesses who could explain what had happened, and no body to tell
investigators where to begin. As weeks turned into months and
months into years, rumors spread across the quiet farming
community, but answers remained elusive. Behind the image of a
prosperous family, however, investigators would eventually uncover
a web of infidelity, deception, and long-buried secrets that
transformed a missing person case into one of the most
extraordinary murder prosecutions in Illinois history.
