Snow had just started falling in some areas in California, when the girl was reported missing. There were no clues to where she had gone or where she had been. The local police had been called in after the girl had been missing for twenty-four hours.
The Private Investigator who had been called in to help find the girl was useless. The Investigator was just getting in the way of the cops. The Detective, who was on the Police Force, was trying to keep the missing girl's parents calm but was not having much luck.
"Please, Mrs. Finn, we need you to calm down" the Detective told the mother. It took five more minutes for the mother to calm down before the Detective could ask the victim's mother questions about where her daughter could be.
"So when was the last time you saw your daughter, Mrs. Finn?" the Officer asked. Mrs. Finn took a deep breath before replying to the question.
"The last time I saw Lexi, she was on her way back to Pennsylvania for the new term at school. When the school called here yesterday morning telling me that Lexi never arrived-" Mrs. Finn was interrupted by another Officer who had just gotten off the phone with the FBI.
"Todd, that was the FBI from LA. Apparently this isn't the first disappearance of young women around Lexi's age," the officer said.
The Detective wasn't surprised to hear this news. This hadn't been the first time that the FBI had kept information from them.
Some one had called the FBI. A car had driven passed the crime scene on their way home, the crime scene was about a half-hour from the FBI Headquarters in LA.
Special Agent Don Eppes had just entered the office when Colby Granger and David Sinclair approached him.
"Don, we just received a call from a Mr. Johnson about a crime scene. Nikki and Liz are already there, and I am afraid they have some bad news about a girl named Lexi Finn" Colby said.
