Memories and the disappearance of the Shane children - A Original Mystery Story Podcast

By Kim

This mysterious story is taken from a short mystery. Written by my mom, Marie, and given to me to finish into a novel. This mystery is about two small children, Jimmy and Sally Shane, and the morning they disappeared. The family were newcomers to the small Town of Foxcreek with secrets of their own to hide. Secrets, buried secrets, lies and passion. Someone in the small town knew what happened to the Shane kids. Cover ups and tight lips meant that it may never be solved.
