In February of 2004, a 21-year-old nursing student vanished after being involved in a car accident in New Hampshire.

When police arrived at the scene, she was gone, and to this day, she has never been found. Does her disappearance have anything to do with what she had been searching online the night before she went missing? Or did she get into the car with a stranger to leave the scene of her accident? With numerous theories floating around, they all lead to the same question: Where is she? This is the story of Maura Murray.

A local man named Butch Atwood witnessed the crash and called out to Maura asking if she needed him to call the police. She told him she’d already called car towing services and not to worry about it.
But the problem was there was no phone service. Maura hadn’t called for help. Instead, in the 19 minutes it took for law enforcement to arrive, Maura’s car was locked, and she was nowhere to be seen.
James Renner is an author who has spent his professional life wrapped up in this mystery, desperate to find out just what happened to Maura Murray.
Was she murdered? Kidnapped? Or did Maura want to vanish and start another life?
James explores all these options, the people of interest, what happened in the days leading up to her disappearance, and whether he thinks we’ll ever know what really happened to Maura Murray.
