Up and Vanished: In The Midnight Sun is Part 2 is here!
Payne has spent the last year in Nome, Alaska, investigating the case of Native Alaskan Florence Okpealuk, who went missing in 2020.

After combing through tips and new leads, Payne is now back with new episodes to take us deep into what he has uncovered in Florence’s case. And that is not the only case he has uncovered in the small town of Nome.
