In the quiet riverside town of Riverside, Ohio, 14-year-old Mara Hensley vanished on a chilly March afternoon in 1998 after leaving school. For 11 long years, her father Daniel kept the porch light burning, refusing to give up hope. Then, in 2009, a chance encounter at a small corner market changed everything… and revealed she had never truly left town.
A slow-burn mystery about persistence, hidden truths, and the power of one person who still remembers.
