Emma Faulds and her West Highland Terrier, Maverick, were inseparable. To her, the dog wasn't just a pet; he was like her son. She was a 39-year-old care worker known for her kind heart, and her phone was described as an extension of her arm—she was always in touch with loved ones.
On the night of April 28th, 2019, she texted a friend that she was at the home of a man she’d known for 18 years, planning to have some wine and stay the night. After that message, she vanished.
Two days later, police broke into her apartment to find Maverick alone, crying, and recovering from a recent surgery. Everyone who knew Emma was certain of one thing: she would never, ever have left him like that. Her disappearance would spark a massive search across 700 square miles of remote Scottish wilderness.
And the investigation into what happened to the woman who would never abandon her dog would begin with a series of baffling clues: an oddly parked car, CCTV footage of suspicious purchases, and two cars making strange journeys deep into a forest from which Emma Faulds would never return.
