The Evaporated: Gone with the Gods
What if someone close to you just … vanished one day? That happens to tens of thousands of families a year in Japan, and it happened to Jake Adelstein, too, back in 2018 — when his accountant disappeared, just before tax day.

The Evaporated: Gone With The Gods is a Campside Media & Sony Music Entertainment production.
