In September 1992, 20-year-old Acadia University student Kenley Matheson vanished without a trace. Only two weeks into his first semester, Kenley's new friend Tom Gordon spots Kenley walking on the streets of Wolfville, Nova Scotia the evening of September 21 for the final time. What happened after this alleged sighting has been a mystery for over thirty years. In the time since Kenley went missing, several theories have emerged (some plausible and others shocking).

Multiple theories are uncovered about where Kenley's remains can be found. Will Kenley's family finally have answers?
