In the quiet Catalina Foothills outside Tucson, the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie has turned a beloved TV
figure’s life into a real-time nightmare. Investigators describe a full-scale search and rescue, yet the presence

a knock, a clue — any sign that this terrifying cliffhanger in her family’s story might still find a merciful end.
