Edwards' body has never been found and from this, a quixotic mystery has developed surrounding his disapearance. In this story, Fry describes his friendship with Edwards, how their friendship ended and later in 2017, Fry's quest to discover Edward's whereabouts. Fry puts to his readers the reasons why he is certain that Edwards' disappearance was faked and tries to analyse the events that led him to his conclusion.
