Story
Detective Tom Watts stepped into the charming ice cream parlor, the sweet aroma of freshly made waffle cones enveloping him as he glanced around the bustling shop. His eyes scanned the room, taking in the pastel-colored walls adorned with whimsical ice cream-themed artwork and the lively chatter of customers savoring their frozen treats. Detective Watts's specific objective for the scene was to gather information about the missing child's last known whereabouts and to speak with the owner of the parlor, Mrs. Lacey, who had been the one to report the disappearance.

Some said there was a reason it took the family so long to call for help. That they knew what happened to the boy. Now, fifteen years later, the daughter the family had in their grief has gone missing in the same wilderness as her brother.
