When sixteen-year-old Hallie vanishes, the police dismiss it as a runaway case. But retired detective Edie Sharpe knows better. A doodled receipt, a scuffed window ledge, and a trail of painted flowers lead Edie into the shadows of abandoned youth centres and fragile secrets.
With only her sharp eye and stubborn persistence, Edie pieces together a story no one else will see — one of loyalty, desperation, and the quiet strength it takes to come home.
The Missing Note is a tense, atmospheric short mystery in the Edie Sharpe series — perfect for readers who enjoy classic sleuths, contemporary amateur detectives, and stories that remind patterns never lie.
