Summary

When Edward “Eddie” Forrester vanished from his Blackpool home on 1 September 2023, it was clear something was very wrong. Within days of his disappearance, police found worrying signs inside the flat below his… signs that something violent had happened, and that someone was desperately trying to cover it up. As detectives followed a trail of CCTV, phone data, and a white van that travelled far beyond Blackpool, the search for a missing man began twisting into a far darker investigation — one that would expose secrets on a quiet street and lead to a discovery miles away that no one was prepared for.
