In June of 1992, three women vanished without a trace from a quiet home in Springfield, Missouri. Suzie Streeter, her friend Stacy McCall, and Suzie’s mother, Sherrill Levitt, had returned home after a graduation celebration, never to be seen again. Their purses were left behind, the house showed no signs of struggle, and a cryptic, unsettling message on the answering machine was erased before police could hear it.
