In 1957, three teenage naval cadets were sent to map a Suffolk village they had never seen, and came back describing a place that didn't belong to its own century. It's remembered now as the Kersey Time Slip – and decades on, no one can agree on what those three boys actually walked into.

(Disappearance of Sandra Hughes) *** Ken McElroy was shot to death on a small-town main street in front of dozens of neighbors, and more than forty years later, every one of them still says the same thing: they saw nothing.
