Summary

In the Spring of 1999 a beautiful young woman, just shy of her 19th birthday went missing after leaving her house on the eve of the first day of her full time job. Both her family and employer knew that she would never miss that first day of work, so when she never came home and did not show up for work they knew that something was wrong. The investigation into her disappearance would leave a black mark on the reputation of the Akron, Ohio police department and the beginning of legal battles that would take over a decade to bring justice to Hannah Hill.
