Summary
Fiona Sinnott, 19, went missing on February 8, 1998, after leaving her local pub in Broadway, Ireland, to make the 14km walk back to her home. She was never seen again. Fiona’s cousin and sister reveal what they believe happened to her, as well as how the family took the search for her into their own hands. And the episode explores a terrifying detail: Fiona is just one of a number of lone women, who disappeared from an area of Ireland dubbed ‘The Vanishing Triangle’.
