A/N: This story is based on the disappearance of Madeleine McCann. Her case has stuck with me for many years, and after seeing the Netflix documentary, I have a lot of things related to it that I need to process. This is how I'm going to do it.

This story, in it's later chapters, is going to contain triggering content. I will ensure that I attach trigger warnings to the chapters in question so they can be avoided if one wishes.

I have also broken it into two parts, with each part having multiple chapters. There will be another AN prior to Part Two, signalling the change in sections and also aiding to help break the chapters apart in the chapter list.

Thank you! I hope you enjoy this story!
