💙 💦 Oh, my, Raine!!!! I didn't know it was fiction until midway through and then madly scanned your topic tags!! Got caught up in your AI photo and missed the teeny-weeny "FICTION" Kicker. 🙄

Thank goodness, this is not a true story. I do remember a little girl abducted and could never leave the windows open at night ever again.

As for Verity, I knew she wouldn't show. Just a hunch.

Love that her grandparents loved Verity from the start and accepted her as their own.

A sad tale of young lost girls.

So well written!!
