The Disappearance of Amy Bradley - Collaboration with Catie Brannon

Amy Lynn Bradley was 23 years old when she disappeared during a family cruise aboard Royal Caribbean’s Rhapsody of the Seas on March 24, 1998. She had been vacationing with her parents—Ron and Iva—and her brother Brad. Earlier that night, Amy and Brad danced late into the evening at the ship’s nightclub. Brad returned to their cabin at approximately 3:35 a.m., followed five minutes later by Amy. They conversed briefly on the balcony before Brad went to sleep and Amy remained outside in a lounge chair. Between about 5:15 a.m. and 5:30 a.m., their father woke and saw Amy asleep on the balcony. But by roughly 6:00 a.m., she was gone—vanished without a trace.
