When 27-year-old Jessica Lloyd failed to show up for work, it immediately set off alarm bells for everyone who knew how responsible and reliable she was. Upon further inspection, two sets of footprints in the snow would show Jessica's shoes walking away from her home towards the property line, vanishing once met with tire tracks. Someone had taken her. And this was yet another event on a growing list of break-ins, burglaries and even assault in small Ontario towns once untouched by major crime. What was first disregarded as some deranged creep on the loose had escalated to kidnapping and possibly even murder. But the last thing the authorities expected was for their investigation to lead them right to the Royal Canadian Air Force, and specifically, Colonel David Russell Williams. Could this really be their guy? How was it possible that a decorated pilot and respected commander was one of the most dangerous and deadly men Canada has ever seen?
