We've got two books this month about missing kids, presumed dead. With no planning by us, our two books are eerily similar. Kids vanish without a trace. The cops and adults are no use. Amateur sleuths are on the case trying to figure out what really happened. Neither of us have finished our books at the time of the recording, and we have no solids causes on the truth. Listen in and let us know if you can solve it.
