That house was our dream house. On the outside it was this great marriage, great family, made lots of money. You go in that door, that's not how it was. That was just...sought me to a problem.

A husband vanishes without a trace. He left a young daughter behind. I was hearing rumors that he went to the Caribbean. I felt hurt and betrayed.

Missing or hiding? The answer was deep in the desert. A lot of this isn't had enough. I believed he felt victim to felt pain.

My suspicion was that there was a body under the tree. It's time to complete the game.

A wife with a secret. It's beyond me how anyone can do that. I can only imagine what it would be like keeping that secret.

You ready for what's coming? How do you say you're ready? I know that it has to happen.

There's an old saying that two people can keep a secret if one of them is dead.

We never talked about what happened or why it happened.

Every marriage has its secrets and this one was no different. But what if the secret becomes bigger than you?

That was just...sought me to a problem.

There were two people who'd been unlucky in love the first time around. Back then she was Ellen Sheffield in her early 30s, divorced with the unchilded, and looking for someone to share that next chapter of her life.

And then quite literally, in walked Mike Snyder.

And I said, hi Mike, how are you doing?

It was the fall of 91. Automacanic Mike Snyder was visiting a friend at the car dealership where Ellen worked.

He was curious about the redhead who'd greeted him with a big allow.

He didn't remember who I was, but he got back to work and called back over and find out who I was.

Turned out, they'd worked together years before. This time the quick encounter led to a fix-up by mutual friends.

Great guy, you know, showed interest in me.

Opposites attracted. The quiet and introverted Mike heated off with the talkative and outgoing Ellen.

He'd leave flowers on my car. We'd, you know, go out to dinner. He was nice to my son.

And that was important to you.

It was very important to me. Absolutely.
