In this episode, we delve into the mysterious disappearance of Carmel Gilmour, a 36-year-old mother from Parksville, whose van was found abandoned along the waterfront in Qualicum Beach five years ago. The investigation started on November 15th, 2017, when her boyfriend reported her missing, having last seen her the night before on Little Mountain.

Witnesses recall her acting confused and paranoid at a Liquor Depot the day prior.

Despite thorough searches and canvassing the area, police found no signs of struggle in her van, which appeared to have been her residence. Shockingly, it took seven days for authorities to flag the vehicle as suspicious since it had not moved. As we explore the timeline and circumstances, discover the details about Carmel's life leading up to her disappearance. Despite extensive efforts by law enforcement, Carmel's whereabouts remain unknown. The investigation rules out her boyfriend's involvement, leaving a haunting question: Where is Carmel Gilmour, and what secrets might the small town of Parksville be hiding?

As we detail the perplexing case, we'll explore the emotional toll on her family, the questions surrounding her sudden disappearance, and the haunting possibility that someone, or something, knows more than they're letting on.
