In today's episode, we’re traveling back to 1961, when a young mother named Joan Risch vanished without a trace from her Massachusetts home. The only clues left behind were a kitchen smeared with blood, a phone ripped from the wall, and a trail of contradictions that has led investigators down decades of dead ends. More than sixty years later, Joan’s case remains one of New England’s most haunting mysteries.
