Episode Description from the Publisher

On an April evening in 1998, Traci Pittman Kegley stopped for gas in Elmore County, Alabama with her two-year-old daughter in the car and then vanished. By morning, her white Geo Storm was found abandoned on a secluded road with her little girl still inside, unharmed but alone, her purse and ID left behind, and Traci nowhere to be found, launching a case that has stayed cold for decades but never stopped feeling like a kidnapping scene frozen in place.Even years later, investigators kept circling back to the same rural property near where the car was found, and search teams with cadaver dogs detected signs of human remains, but Traci herself has never been recovered, leaving her family with a brutal half-answer: someone almost certainly took her, but the final truth still hasn’t surfaced.
