The Petersons lived in a town called Ashburn, where something happened and it changed everything. It all started when the Petersons ' daughter went missing and never returned.
Alice loved playing at the park across the street with her teenage big brother, Max. Everyday, she would go to the park after she did her chores and homework. One day, she went and never returned.
It all happened while Alice was swinging, and Max was on his phone with ear buds in, listening to music, as usual. His mom always made him go to the park with Alice and babysit her, even though he didn 't want to. He noticed the weather was nice, but there was only one white van sitting by the park, which was unusual. He got a call on his phone, it was from his mom. She said …show more content…
No one else was here at the park. I was on my phone, listening to music and when you called I looked around for her, assuming that she was playing with me and I couldn’t find her.” Max wept “I’m so sorry, this is all my fault.” Mom responded “We will find her. Let’s go to the police.” They got in the car and drove to the police station. Mom announced “We need to report a missing child.” Officer Spencer asked “How long has it been since the child went missing?” Mom replied “About 45 minutes.

Today, the Peterson’s heard from the police that the sweater was in fact Alice’s. The case still continued for months over. Still, nothing was heard about Alice. Slowly, every drop of hope dripped out of everyone and everyone believed that Alice was just gone.
Two years later, the police found a body that matches the description of Alice. Even though, Mom didn’t want the body to be Alice, she wanted this misery to be over. The police did DNA testing on her and found that there was a match. It was Alice, their beloved daughter and sister. They didn’t only find her DNA, they also found another man’s DNA on Alice’s body. Alice had been murdered and thrown in the river for her to wash up on a shore somewhere. The case hadn’t ended, it had just begun.
Then, over time, other girls with similar descriptions had slowly started disappearing, like a pattern. They traced all their knowledge with Alice into this case. The police believed this was one for the FBI. The FBI believed they were all
