The anguish of not knowing. The questions that never end. Imagine losing your child — not to death, but to disappearance. No goodbyes. No answers. Just silence. That’s the reality Terry and Debbi Elvis have lived since December 2013 — the last time they spoke to their 20-year-old daughter, Heather. What followed was a nightmare. Heather had been involved with a man 17 years older — a married father of two, living a double life. Their brief affair spiraled into a years-long saga when his wife, Tammy, found out. And even though Heather had moved on, Tammy hadn’t. The harassment escalated. The threats continued. And then — Heather vanished. Though arrests were made, Heather has never been found. And her family is still left waiting — for justice, for closure, for answers. Join us as we unpack the case of Heather Elvis in two-part episodes.
