One boy had something on the end of his line, but it wasnt a fish. It was something much larger and heavier, for he had trouble pulling it in. It was a body, a naked body. A young girls naked body. It was Grace. When the police examined the case, it was frame in down as suicide. They didnt look into it much, everything added up. She was young, lonely, upset, it all seemed to fit.

Maybe they needed just that one bit of evidence to prove that it wasnt as simple as it looked. Maybe* Wednesday 15th NovemberIm scared. I dont know exactly whats happening.
