    In 2007, four people vanished from a remote town in Western Australia. A man. A woman. Her five-year-old daughter. And one friend who followed them. They left behind a note saying they had gone to Brazil. Nearly twenty years later, no one has found them.

    They’d spent the evening drinking, laughing, and according to Sarah Boone, acting like children. A game of hide-and-seek. At least, that’s what she told detectives. But when 42-year-old Jorge Torres Jr. was found dead inside a suitcase in a Winter Park, Florida apartment, investigators would discover that the most important witness had already recorded what happened. And the videos she captured would transform a story about an accident… into something far more disturbing.

    In 1933, Michael Malloy was a regular at a Bronx speakeasy when a group of men decided he was worth more dead than alive. But Malloy kept surviving. The newspapers would call him Iron Mike.

Then a debt got personal. And fifteen-year-old Nick Markowitz was pulled into a world where everyone wanted to act dangerous, but no one wanted to be responsible.

    Portbou, Spain. 1990. A young woman is found hanging from a pine tree above the sea. No passport. No money. No name.

    76. After The Storm

    New Orleans, 2005. Hurricane Katrina is moving toward the city, and two French Quarter bartenders decide to stay. Zack Bowen and Addie Hall ride out the storm together, falling in love inside an emptied-out Quarter where the lights are off, the rules are loose, and survival starts to feel like freedom. But when the power comes back on, reality returns.  One year later, Zack jumps from the roof of the Omni Royal Orleans with a note sealed in plastic in his pocket. And that note leads police back to an apartment on North Rampart Street… where the story of the couple who stayed becomes something much darker.
