A small town. A series of missing teenagers. A girl who's smarter than she lets on. 

<><><><><><><><>

On Saturday, May 20th, the disappearances started. It was slow at first. One teen a month. It could easily have been a coincidence, the public thought. Then they started getting closer together. Once every three weeks. Once every two weeks. It kept happening until it was one teen every week.

Families were panicking. First responders had to work overtime. The town was chaos. But they tried to keep everything functioning, burying their grief in their work. 

While those idiots pretend it isn't happening, Cheryl Abbot is slowly uncovering the truth. She feels she has to, who knows who could be next?
