I've always hated crowds.
There's just something about the rush and noise of them that has scared me since I was a little kid, and driven me away from big events.
This completely irrational fear is why I didn't go to Mia-from-number-four's barbecue.
And it is also why I witnessed a kidnap.
13-year-old Rory Achre is not like other kids. She prefers to stay inside and rarely ventures out of her room, instead surrounding herself with detective novels. That is, until Rory is the last person to see toddler Lily before she goes missing - and is faced with a case much bigger than any of her books.
