WHEN MARTIN WITNESSES A 12-YEAR-OLD BOY'S ABDUCTION BUT FAILS TO STOP IT, HE APPROACHES THE INVESTIGATION WITH GUILT AND ADDED VIGOR, ON "WITHOUT A TRACE," THURSDAY, FEB. 24

Dylan Baker ("The Elizabeth Smart Story," "Kinsey") Guest Stars

"Manhunt" -- Martin is wracked with guilt when he fails to prevent a 12-year-old boy from being dragged into a car outside of his school, on WITHOUT A TRACE, Thursday, Feb. 24 (10:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Jeannot Szwarc directed the episode written by David Amann.

Dylan Baker ("The Elizabeth Smart Story," "Kinsey"), guest stars as the kidnapper, Brian Stone.

Encouraged to at least have Martin able to describe the kidnapper and his vehicle, the team tries to ease Martin's guilt at not preventing the boy's kidnapping, even though he jogged by the boy and the culprit just moments before the abduction. Though Mike's parents don't recognize the man from the sketch, the school's crossing guard reveals that she's seen the man with Mike after school on occasion over the past few months, a fact that is especially disturbing to Mike's dumbfounded parents. Meanwhile, Martin is annoyed by Samantha's reluctance to tell their colleagues about their relationship.
