Forty-two years ago, Robert Stevens thought it was just a typical day. Little did he know that dropping off his wife Flora at a doctor’s appointment would spark a chain of events that would lead to her mysterious disappearance and a decades-long cold case. 

Stevens had a routine – a visit to the doctor for the latter followed by some errands for the former. Little did Robert know that this seemingly mundane day would take an unexpected turn. 

Robert arrived at the doctor’s office, eagerly awaiting the return of his wife. He waited, expecting her to emerge any moment, but to his dismay she was nowhere to be seen. 

Robert awoke that day with a to-do list, appointments and a sense of normalcy. Little did he know, his life was about to be changed forever. His family was struck with a tragedy they never could have imagined – a disappearance that would remain unsolved for 42 long years. 

It was August 3rd, 1975, and Robert Stevens was filled with worry. His beloved Flora had gone missing, and he couldn’t help but think that something terrible had happened to her. 

Summertime in the Catskill Mountains of New York was always alive with mirth, merriment and families on vacation. In 1975, Flora was a part of the buzz, working at the luxurious Concord Resort. It was a popular destination for tourists and locals alike. 

The detectives assigned to the case were determined to get to the bottom of it. Instead of jumping to conclusions, they decided to start from the beginning. After a few days of research, they uncovered Flora’s connection to Lincoln High School in New York. 

The detectives on the case found themselves in a perplexing situation. No clues or leads emerged to help them locate Flora, leaving Robert helpless and clueless as to what could have happened to his wife. 

In 1975, when police forces had yet to develop the sophisticated technology they have today, finding a missing person seemed impossible. Detectives had to do a lot of hard work, combing through every lead without the help of tracking devices or questioning family members. 

The search for answers regarding Flora’s mysterious disappearance seemed to have no end. Days became weeks, and months went by without any progress in the case. The detectives were completely stumped, and could not figure out if Flora had been kidnapped, or if she had run away. 

Robert had longed for closure. He had given up on searching for his beloved wife, Flora, and decided to move on with his life. He tried to make peace with the fact that he may never know what had happened to her that fateful day. 

In 2017, Senior Investigator Yan Salomon stumbled upon a crucial piece of evidence that could potentially be linked to the long-forgotten case of Flora, a missing woman. 

After months of painstaking research, Salomon had finally stumbled upon a breakthrough in his investigation. He was reluctant to tell the family about his findings; he wanted to make sure that he had all the facts first. 

Detective Salomon had a daunting task ahead of him. After calling the Sullivan County Sheriff’s Office, he was in desperate need of a detective to help identify a body. With around 70,000 women unaccounted for in the United States, this was not going to be an easy investigation. 

Salomon was determined to uncover the truth behind the 21,894 active cases of missing women. He knew he had a massive and challenging task ahead of him, which would require immense patience and dedication. 

Salomon was determined to make a difference, so he left his team to their work and made his way to Sullivan County. His instincts proved to be spot on when he found out that the woman he had discovered was from the very same area. 

Detective Salomon was crestfallen when his investigation took a turn for the worse. The body he’d discovered was not Flora’s, and he was left with an unsolved case and a slim file to go off of. 

Detective Morgan from Sullivan County Police Department was assigned with a herculean task as well – to link the missing Flora’s case with the body found in the Catskill Mountains. Unfortunately, the case was taking up too much of Salomon’s time and energy, which is why it was handed over to Detective Morgan. 

Detective Morgan was determined to solve the mystery that had eluded investigators for decades. He was certain that there was a small detail that had been overlooked, or perhaps new information that would lead them straight to the suspect. 

Detective Morgan was finally able to make a major breakthrough in the case when he found an ID badge belonging to the lady Salomon had discovered in the mountains. It was revealed that she worked at The Concord, the same place as Flora. 

For 45 years, Flora’s file had been collecting dust, tucked away and forgotten. But now, technology has changed everything. It was time to finally reunite Flora with her family and uncover the truth of what happened in the Catskill Mountains during the summer of 1975. 

Detective Morgan was determined to find out what happened to Flora all those years ago. He tirelessly scoured through the archives, desperate for a clue that would lead him to the truth. But days turned into weeks, and weeks into months, with no new information to be found. 

Detective Morgan was determined to find answers about Flora’s disappearance in 1975. After much effort, he tracked down her husband, Robert, for an interview – only to discover that Robert had passed away ten years later. Little did Detective Morgan know, Robert’s death would ultimately be beneficial to his investigation.

Detective Morgan was at a dead end in Flora’s missing person case. With no living relatives to speak to, it seemed impossible to make any progress. But Detective Morgan was determined to bring Flora home. 

Detective Morgan had an inkling that his luck would come around when he went straight to the social security number database in search of Flora’s personal number. He searched both the local and national databases, and much to his surprise, he got a hit. 

Detective Morgan’s heart raced as he stepped onto the plane – could this really be the answer to a 42-year-old mystery? He had stumbled upon a social security number belonging to Flora, a woman who had gone missing years ago. 

Detective Morgan had a hunch that something exciting was about to unfold. When he learned that the social security number was being used over 200 miles away in the tiny town of Lowell, just north of Boston, Massachusetts, he knew this was a clue he had to follow. 

Detective Morgan had a hunch – and he wasn’t about to ignore it. After calling the facility, he discovered that a woman by the name of Flora had been there since 2001. Although her last name was Harris and not Stevens, the same first name, social security number, and birthday made it too coincidental for him to ignore. 

After over four decades of searching, Detective Morgan was astounded when he met Flora Stevens. Despite her dementia, she still recognised a picture of her younger self and was able to point out her former husband in a photograph.

After months of tireless investigation, the detectives had finally found the missing woman. Although they were overjoyed by the success of their mission, the mystery of what happened to her that day in 1975 remained unsolved. 

The disappearance of Flora was a mystery that had been puzzling people for 42 years. There were many theories as to what could have happened to her. One thought was that she ran away due to mental health issues.
