About this episode

After the disappearance of Fran Gladden-Smith, her family looks into her husband John’s past only to find he had a previous wife who also disappeared never to be heard from again. Ultimately, it is the guilty conscience of John’s family that leads them to speak with police about the box they saw him constructing in 1974 around the time John’s first wife went missing.
