On Christmas Eve 1945, the Sodder family home went up in flames, but the tragedy was only the beginning. While the house burned to the ground in forty-five minutes, five children vanished without a trace—leaving behind no remains and a trail of sabotaged evidence. This episode unpacks the chilling anomalies of the case, from cut phone lines and missing ladders to a mysterious photo that arrived twenty years too late, exposing a haunting web of political vendettas, potential kidnappings, and a decades-long search for the truth.

WARNING: This episode discusses child disappearance, arson, and the potential kidnapping of minors.
