This book was produced in EPUB format by the Internet Archive.
The book pages were scanned and converted to EPUB format automatically. This process relies on optical character recognition, and is somewhat susceptible to errors. The book may not offer the correct reading sequence, and there may be weird characters, non-words, and incorrect guesses at structure. Some page numbers and headers or footers may remain from the scanned page. The process which identifies images might have found stray marks on the page which are not actually images from the book. The hidden page numbering which may be available to your ereader corresponds to the numbered pages in the print edition, but is not an exact match; page numbers will increment at the same rate as the corresponding print edition, but we may have started numbering before the print book's visible page numbers. The Internet Archive is working to improve the scanning process and resulting books, but in the meantime, we hope that this book will be useful to you.
The Internet Archive was founded in 1996 to build an Internet library and to promote universal access to all knowledge.

INTRODUCTION
This book was never planned; it evolved. After dozens of radio interviews and hundreds of e-mails, it became very obvious that there were many more cases of missing people than what were contained in the Western and Eastern Missing 411 books. I should start this manuscript with a huge thank you to every person that sent me cases matching the profile Ive written about. Each of the cases you sent was investigated and thoroughly researched, and many are included in this book.
As cases were investigated and thoroughly understood, they sometimes led to additional cases and even new clusters. We did realize early on that we couldnt have found every case matching our profile, and we knew that the public would assist us in our continued search. We also knew that there would be additional cases that occurred as we were in the field conducting research, and many of these recent cases are in this book.
Before we get too far into the book, it is important to understand a few abbreviations that you will see multiple times in the narrative:

As a brief reminder of what the Missing 411 books are about, I will include a short review. These books are about people who have disappeared in rural locations of the worldyes, the world. The past two books have focused on North America. We are going global now.
The books included the following criteria for inclusion:
Missing are people with disabilities.
Missing left with their canines.
Introduction! xi
Missing are found in or near creeks, rivers, or other bodies of water.
There is geographical clustering of missing persons.
Bad weather was associated with the disappearance.
Swamps and briar patches played a predominant role in many disappearances.
The vast majority of disappearances occur in the late afternoon or early evening.
When the missing is found, many cannot or will not remember what occurred while they were gone.
When the missing is located, the majority are semiconscious or unconscious.
When the missing is located, many are missing clothing or shoes or both.
The missing is found in an area that was previously searched.
Berries are inextricably related somehow with the disappearance.
New Clusters
With the publicity surrounding the first two books and the appearances I made, new information came to our attention, and soon four new clusters were discovered.
