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 for Part 2 of this two-part story as we discuss the arrest, trials and post-conviction relief efforts of those involved in Heather's disappearance.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
