In the spring of 2005, 27-year-old Emma Caldwell disappeared from Glasgow. A little over a month later, she was found dead in a remote woodland, miles from the city. What followed became one of the largest and most controversial murder investigations in modern Scottish history. Leads were followed, enormous resources were spent, and several people came under police scrutiny. But year after year passed without anyone being convicted of Emma’s murder. And when the investigation was looked at again much later, an unsettling realisation began to emerge; in many ways, the answer had already been there. Right in the middle of the investigation.

On the 6th of July 1985, a 19-year-old dance instructor and university student disappeared from a dance academy on the island of Oahu, Hawaii. It was the middle of the afternoon in a busy area, and whatever happened appears to have unfolded within a window of just 15 minutes. Her car was still in the parking lot. Her purse and keys had been left inside the building. And Diane Suzuki was gone. It is a case that has haunted Hawaii for more than 40 years, and to this day, it remains unsolved.

On Easter Sunday in 1990, a couple were out driving when a van came speeding up behind them. The van passed them, but a few minutes later they saw the same van parked outside an abandoned school. Standing beside it was a man holding a bloodstained piece of fabric. They kept driving, confused by what they had just seen. And shortly afterwards, the van appeared behind them again. This was not a scene from a horror movie. But years later, it would bear a striking resemblance to one.
