On August 4th, 1981, twenty year old Cindy Anderson went to work at a law office in Toledo, OH.  Cindy had just ten days left before she’d be moving on to Bible College, but sadly, she would never make it.

When her bosses arrived that afternoon, they found the office arranged for the day but Cindy was gone.  Her car was parked outside and a book was laid open on her desk, but there was no sign of her.  For weeks leading up to her disappearance, Cindy had been receiving scary phone calls and she was dreaming of being abducted.

What happened to Cindy Anderson?  Was she abducted by a stranger, or perhaps someone she knew and trusted?  Did she fall victim to a pair of serial killer brothers or did her own boss play a role?
