A young girl with short, blonde hair and bright, blue eyes, jumped onto
her parent's bed. "Are we really going to visit Uncle Scott at the
police station?"
Elizabeth Drew nodded, bending down to give her daughter a kiss. "We
are. Now why don't you get changed, Nancy. Your father won't wait long
for us."
"Okay, Mommy!" Nancy responded.
Twenty minutes later, Nancy walked into the police station with her
parents. She had only been there once before, but had to wait in the
car with her mom as her dad went inside.
There wasn't much going on, so Nancy was able to pick out her tall
uncle. Irish and temperamental, Sergeant Scott McGinnis. She
refrained from shouting out to him because she was around adults and
wanted to make a good impression.
"Is that my little Detective?" Nancy beamed and smiled. "Well, you're
all grown up. Elizabeth, what have you been feeding her?"
"It's a secret," she replied with a laugh. "Now, I believe you
gentlemen have a case to discuss. I am going to take Nancy on a
whirlwind tour of precinct 55."
Carson pretended to pout. "You get all the fun, Nan."
"That's life, Daddy," she said, taking Elizabeth's hand.
Scott and Carson watched as they headed over to the main desk. "A
smart aleck. I wonder where she gets that from."
Carson smiled. "So, what did you want to see me about?"
Scott led his friend into his office. "Remember Merick Williams?"
"What about him?" Carson asked, slightly alarmed. He had put Williams
behind bars last year for attempted robbery and assault.
"He escaped early this morning."
Carson stared at him for a few minutes before responding. "Do they
have any idea what he's up to?"
Scott nodded and handed him a manila folder. "That was found in his
cell before he 'left'".
"For me?" Carson asked, opening it. He took a deep breath after he
read it. "Oh my God."
"Carson, what's wrong?"
He turned to see his wife and daughter. Nancy looked up at him with
curious eyes. Before he could say anything, there was a loud noise and
Elizabeth was falling to the floor.
****
Nancy woke up with a jolt, trying to catch her breath. She remembered
that day clearly, however that was how the day ended... or so she
thought.
Was her Mother really murdered right in front of her? There were only
a few people who would know the truth. And currently, the one she'd
ask was lying in a coma.
After she had calm down, Nancy got up and went in search of Fenton Hardy.
