Author's POV
Shawn and Jeanne stood in silence, both deep in thought. The riddle played over and over in their minds:
"Find the key where the sun meets the sea."
Jeanne absently traced her finger over the letter, her brows furrowed.
Suddenly, Shawn’s eyes widened with realization. “Jeanne, I think I know where we need to go.”
Jeanne looked up, surprised. “Where?”
“There’s a balcony on the east side of the mansion,” Shawn said, his voice quickening with excitement.
“It faces the ocean, and the sun sets right over the water from that view. ‘Where the sun meets the sea’—it has to be there!”Jeanne’s face lit up with hope.
“Of course! How did we miss that?”They hurried through the winding hallways of the mansion, racing towards the east balcony. As they arrived, the view was breathtaking—the sun was low on the horizon, its golden light shimmering across the water.
Jeanne paused, mesmerized by the scene, but Shawn was already scanning the area for clues.
“There’s got to be something hidden here,” Shawn murmured as he examined the ornate railings and the stone floor beneath their feet. After a few tense minutes, he knelt down and ran his fingers over a faint, circular indentation in the stone.
“Here!” he said, pointing to the spot. “It’s another hidden compartment.”
Jeanne knelt beside him, her heart pounding as she watched Shawn press down on the stone. With a quiet *click*, a hidden drawer slid open, revealing a delicate necklace with the initials “B.O.B” etched into the pendant.
