The Missing -- A Weekly Exposé of Lost Souls -- Issue #16

June 02, 2008

In this week's edition of "The Missing," we revisit the mysterious disappearance of Linda Lois Little, a 43-year-old resident of Daytona Beach, Florida, who went missing in October 1991.

"Linda is my older sister. She basically vanished without a trace on October 11, 1991," Linda's sister, Joy Little, said in a telephone interview with Investigation Discovery. "She was last seen in the vicinity of where she lived in Daytona Beach."

According to Joy, Linda was employed as a waitress at the Chart House restaurant, which was located approximately one mile from her beachside apartment. Linda was an avid biker and would always ride her aqua-colored Murray touring bike to and from work. On the night of her disappearance, Linda completed her shift at the restaurant and rode her bike to Matey's Brig bar on Broadway Avenue.

When the same thing happened the following day, Linda's coworkers called her sister Wanda and told her that she had not been coming in to work. By the next day Linda's landlord, who by now was also concerned, called police and reported her missing.

"The police brought in search dogs and questioned people in the neighborhood, but they found no evidence suggesting what might have happened to her," Joy said. "Her bicycle has never been found and neither has the contents of the duffel bag she was carrying with her – Linda was very meticulous about her appearance and always carried her makeup and a change of clothes."

In the days following Linda's reported disappearance, her family learned something they had been unaware of until that point.

"We found out that her boyfriend...
