Chapter One: Baby is Gone:

It happened on a hot afternoon in July of 1996. The neighborhood on Hunter’s Street started out lazy like it had been that summer. Most of the kids had gone to camp or the beach that year. It seemed that nothing could disturb the peace. That all changed about 3:19 on July tenth.

Twenty-six-year-old Kimberly had just pulled into her driveway from her morning shift at the Chicken Express. Ever since her broken engagement to her long-time boyfriend, Chris, she had been struggling to make ends make for her four-year-old daughter, Lily. The only thing Kimberly thought of was going to bed before working the night shift at the local grocery store that Wednesday.
