Summary

Revisiting a place that holds bad memories isn’t for the faint of heart. Just pulling up to a specific location can bring on anxiety about the past trauma that once took place there. Even decades later, that sinking feeling doesn’t go away. Until recently, Ashyea Durham Pugh hadn’t been back to the scene since that mostly blocked-out memory was her cruel reality. That night she and her mom returned home to their apartment to find that her little sister had vanished without a trace. And as the anniversary of that fateful February passes, her uneasiness grows. Because February 1st, 2024 has come and gone. No one has seen Andrea Durham in 34 years. And whoever took her could still be out there.

2:04.5	Andrea home alone. And that evening had been no exception when she and her
2:08.4	15-year-old daughter, Asha, left for a meeting around 730. But when her hand met the knob, it wiggled slightly, like it had already
2:16.2	been unlocked. Weird, maybe, but she had no need to worry yet. She had to remind herself that her once little girl was now a young teen
