Lydia "Dia" Abrams marries a wealthy La Jolla, California, real estate developer, Clem Abrams.

They have two children. After more than 30 years of marriage, Clem Abrams passes away after a long illness and Dia steps up to run the 116-acre family ranch.

After years as a widow, Abrams meets Keith Harper on a dating website. According to the Mercury News, Harper is a retired parole agent for the Utah Department of Corrections. The two hit it off and six months later, Harper moves in with Dia at the ranch and becomes the ranch manager. According to Harper, he works to upgrade the Abrams’ property: building dams, bridges, and fences, and helping care for Abrams' animals.

Harper also claims to be Abrams’ fiance.

Keith Harper is also named as trustee of Abrams' estate, and her beneficiary in the event of her death. On June 6, 2020, Dia Abrams is seen at her ranch in Mountain Center, California. Then she is captured on doorbell-cam footage delivering cinnamon rolls to a neighbor undergoing cancer treatment.

According to Keith Harper, he and Dia have lunch around 2:30 p.m. before he leaves to work around the property. Abrams reportedly goes to tend to her horses at another property she owns in Garner Valley.

Harper says he mows for five hours before returning to the house around 7:30 p.m. Abrams’ Ford F-350 pickup is parked outside, but Harper cannot find her. Harper says he calls her phone and hears it ringing upstairs. It is plugged into a charger next to a nightstand. Abrams’ purse and keys are also there.

A search begins. Dozens of locals scoured the ranch and surrounding mountain area on foot, horseback, and all-terrain vehicles. Harper is seen riding an ATV around the property. When Riverside County sheriff deputies begin a days-long search, Harper packs up his RV and takes off for Arizona. He says he needs to take care of a tax issue at a property he owns there.

Where is Dia?
