Summary

In June of 2013, an 18-year-old girl disappeared after attending a party with friends and family. Before she went missing, she sent a text to her ex-boyfriend indicating that she was afraid. Hours later, the home of the person she was last seen with suspiciously caught on fire. This is the story of Brookelyn Farthing.
