Prologue
A young boy and girl were playing in the park with a ball. Close by a woman sat on a bench, watching them. Suddenly the ball went flying away from the two young children. 'I'll get it,' the boy called and took after it.
The woman's eyes followed him and widened when she spotted the boy was running in the direction of the road and a vehicle was approaching. Instinctively she sprang up and ran after him. Just before he could run onto the road, she managed to grab hold of his arm and stop him in his track. Seconds later the vehicle rushed by.
She kneeled down and looked her son in the eye. 'What have I told you about roads?'
'To always look before I walk,' the boy replied guiltily.
His mother pulled him into a hug to show she wasn't mad at him. Then she got back to her feet and took his hand. After looking both ways they crossed the road together to retrieve the ball.
The boy had just picked it up when a high pitched scream rang through the air, followed by a sinister laugh. The woman and her son spun around. The spot where her daughter had been was now empty with no indication where the little girl might have gone off too. Mother and son ran back, another passing vehicle barely able to break in time. The ball now lay forgotten against the curb.
The girl had disappeared without a trace.
