A young man disappears in the depths of an underwater cave system in 2010. A father mysteriously vanishes seemingly right outside of his daughter’s apartment complex in 1971. Both men, decades and miles apart, left their families, lives… and troubles… without a trace, leaving their families with more questions than answers. But whether it was by choice or otherwise, one question looms the largest – what happened to Ben & Kenneth?
