Margaret Elmira Bowser, known to family as Mira, was 36 when she began a cross-country drive from Winston-Salem, North Carolina, toward northern California. She was last seen on February 1, 2007; after that day all communication stopped. Authorities became aware she intended to reach northern California, and the San Francisco Police Department is handling the investigation because that was her destination.

Details are scarce: it is unclear how far she traveled and why her car was later sold. She is described as a Black female, 5 feet 5 inches tall, about 125 pounds, with black hair, brown eyes and pierced ears. The sale of her vehicle after her disappearance is a key unresolved detail.

Did anyone in northern California or along the route see Mira, her vehicle, or have information about who sold the car?
