VANISHED

One moment they were there. The next-they were gone.

Across quiet neighborhoods, bustling cities, and rural backroads, children are vanishing-and behind every missing poster lies a story that demands to be heard.

In this gripping and emotionally charged investigation, acclaimed journalist Claire Smith unravels the haunting truths behind some of the most chilling cases of child disappearance. From the first frantic 911 calls to the harrowing aftermath faced by families left in limbo, Vanished: When Innocence is Taken exposes not only the predators behind the crimes-but also the cracks in the systems meant to protect the vulnerable.

Through real-life case studies, psychological profiling, survivor testimonies, and in-depth analysis, Smith sheds light on a hidden epidemic-and the collective silence that allows it to persist.

This is more than a true crime narrative. It is a call to awareness. A voice for the voiceless. And a plea to never forget the children who never came home.

Because behind every statistic is a name. A face. A future stolen.
