In the tranquil surroundings of Antigua, a growing wave of unsettling disappearances has jolted the community, dragging families into a relentless search for answers. Among the most heartbreaking cases is that of Hyacinth Gage, who vanished six years ago at age 74, and whose daughter, Patricia Joseph, has dedicated herself to uncovering the truth. Tragically, her mother is among an alarming increase of missing persons within the last two years, with at least nine reported, a statistic disproportionately high for the island's small population of fewer than 100,000.
