The first report looks routine. A fourteen-year-old girl. South Philadelphia. Missing overnight. No shoes. Detective Jim Weisback has seen enough missing kids get filed away as runaways to know what happens next—the urgency fades, the paperwork gets processed, and the city moves on. But the van parked with its lights off, the after-school program with no real sign-out sheet, the older boy no one can name—none of it fits. And when a second girl disappears from the same block, Weisback stops treating it as coincidence.
