Red Light Vanish: The Disappearance of Bryce Laspisa and The Night That Still Haunts California
By Linda Davidson
In the early hours of August 30, 2013, 19-year-old college student Bryce Laspisa called his parents from a roadside near Castaic Lake, California. He said he was pulling over to rest. Hours later, his SUV was found wrecked at the bottom of an embankment-empty. No blood. No footprints. No signs of a struggle. And no trace of Bryce.
Red Light Vanished is a gripping, deeply researched true crime investigation into one of the most haunting disappearances of the decade. Drawing on GPS data, phone records, eyewitness accounts, and expert insight, bestselling author Linda Davidson reconstructs Bryce's final known movements-and the chilling stillness that followed.
Was Bryce experiencing a mental health crisis? Was he under the influence? Did he walk away willingly-or meet with foul play? Why did he sit parked for hours in Buttonwillow, and what happened in the dark near Castaic Lake?
More than just a missing persons case, this book explores the limits of technology, the heartbreak of unanswered questions, and a family's unwavering search for truth in the face of silence.
Perfect for fans of Missing 411, The Cold Vanish, and Unsolved Mysteries-Red Light Vanished will leave you questioning what really happened that night-and whether some vanishings are ever truly accidental.
