Last summer, a Chinese-American woman and NPR listener reached out with an unusual request. She asked me to help find her sister, who’d vanished in the mountains of Yunnan province in southwest China.
“My little sister has been missing since Nov. 23, 2013,” the woman wrote in an email. “She married a farmer in a remote village and was abused by her husband shortly after her marriage. She escaped from him after a few abuses.”
Then, her little sister disappeared. Her account on WeChat, China’s most popular social media app, went dark, along with her cellphones. Police had initially investigated but seemed to have lost interest in the case.
