It has been a full year since five children mysteriously disappeared from Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria.
While the investigation continues, Zero's father has been working tirelessly to uncover the truth behind the case. But for Zero, this isn't just another investigation-**it's personal.**
Her little brother, Jeremy, was one of the children who vanished that night, and Zero refuses to accept that he may be gone forever. Determined to uncover what really happened to him and the other missing children, she begins searching for answers of her own.
But Zero carries another burden with her: the guilt surrounding what happened in **1983** to her second cousin Michael's younger brother, Evan-also known as CC.
Haunted by the past and unwilling to let history repeat itself, Zero becomes determined to uncover the truth, no matter how dangerous the search becomes.
**Because if she can't save her little brother... then she'll at least find out what happened to him.**
