Flight 608
Amos Hensley had spent thirty-one years helping strangers disappear into the Atlantic, and he had never once considered the possibility that the ocean might return them. His job at Blackwood Tracking Station was simple enough to explain to a child and difficult enough to ruin a man’s life.

The Elevator That Wouldn’t Close
Surveillance footage has something uniquely unsettling about it. It isn't cinema. No soundtrack tells us when to be afraid. No director deciding what we should notice. No camera operator turning toward the darkened doorway at precisely the right moment. The camera simply watches.
