A married father of two from a neighbourhood on the outskirts of Toronto leaves for work one day and never returns. The mystery deepens when his car is found on the other side of the city in a quiet neighbourhood. There are no answers and two years later, another man disappears. Both missing men were originally from Afghanistan and like the first victim, Skanda, they were also brown-skinned.

Journalist Mobeen Azhar investigates what led serial killer and shopping mall Santa Claus Bruce McArthur to target these men, tracking down an out-of-town retired cop who provides a disturbing insight into the missing person investigation related to one of these men years earlier. Show less
