What happens when a bright, responsible 18-year-old vanishes on a road she’s traveled countless times?

In this gripping premiere of Dark Dialogue: Rocky Mountain Reckoning, we begin the haunting case of Lisa Marie Kimmell—known to those who loved her as “Lil Miss.” In March 1988, Lisa left her job in Aurora, Colorado, and set off for a weekend road trip north. She never made it.

With no signs of a crash, no frantic calls, and only a fleeting last sighting by a Wyoming Highway Patrol officer, Lisa’s disappearance stunned investigators and devastated her family. This episode takes you deep into her early life in Montana, her move to Colorado with her mother, the final drive she planned—and the tragic silence that followed.

Hosts John and Angela peel back the layers of this real-life mystery, exposing how jurisdictional gaps, vast Western landscapes, and lost hours contributed to one of the most baffling disappearances of the 1980s.

🎧 Tune in as we retrace her final moments, explore what was known and what was missed, and pay tribute to a life interrupted far too soon.
