Gone for a Spell

by Mikel Andrews

Alex Sommers just landed the coldest case in Ridgewood the disappearance of Lyndsey Stiles. The town sweetheart vanished five years ago without a trace. No clues, no leads. If Alex could crack this one it would be a career-maker. There is one thing holding her she's the gossip columnist for her high school newspaper. Maybe Alex is a little out of her league, but this could be her ticket to getting the good stories. Real investigative journalism. Along with her best conspiracy-loving pal Ozzie, Alex starts playing detective, sifting through Lyndsey's last connections to the town. As the strings that run beneath Ridgewood get plucked, the sleepy little tourist trap begins to change its tune. Nobody seems particularly eager to talk about the case that put their quiet town on the map, less so to see it solved. Was there something about Lyndsey they longed to forget? If she wasn't all sugar and spice then what exactly was she made of? For that matter, what is Alex?
