When Sarah watched her 23 year old daughter cycle away from her in Chelsea - a well-off corner of London - she had no idea it would be the last time they’d see each other for 6 years. What would make a loving child from a life of privilege sever ties with friends and family, and disappear?

It turns out, Sarah wasn’t alone in losing a daughter. Something strange was happening to other young women,... more

  • Fascinating and frightening investigation

    This was a brilliant and sensitively made investigative podcast. How awful that people can manipulate those who trusted them to help. Anne Craig should have given her side of the story and her failure to do so speaks volumes. What courage from the women who were manipulated and the families who stood by and never gave up.
