Chapter 17 - A Disturbing Connection To An Old Missing Case
While reviewing the public records unearthed by the media frenzy, Detective Marcus Vance made a chilling discovery at the station.
He pulled up an unsolved missing persons case from twenty years ago involving a teenage cousin of Clara’s who vanished without a trace.
Vance cross-referenced the property tax logs for the suburban house during the exact week the cousin was reported missing.
The contractor permits for the kitchen drywall framing had been pulled and approved during that exact seven-day window.
“My God... the grandfather didn't just build a hiding place for children; he built a tomb,” Vance muttered to Sheriff Miller.
They immediately dispatched a forensics crew back to the Reynolds house with ground-penetrating radar and demolition hammers.
If there were other victims sealed behind the walls of that suburban dream home, the truth was about to finally come to light.
