Summary

Elaine McKinley's wife had a simple request for her 81st birthday: a short hike and a picnic with Elaine and a friend. Kit knew it was the perfect time of year to see all of the wild flowers in bloom. Elaine moved ahead of Kit and their friend and was never seen again. Drones, dogs, searchers on foot, thermal planes, no source was spared. And yet...Elaine remains missing.
