Kali Martin

Martin turned on his walkie-talkie as he got out of the squad car. From the street, he could see there were several holes in the roof of the house and two broken windows. He had to push the door hard to open it, and the noise startled some animal that ran out the open backdoor. There was charred wood in the fireplace and fast-food wrappers littered the floor. Had Connie eaten one of those hamburgers? Judging by the size of the footprints in the dust on the floor, it seemed unlikely, but the neighborhood kids said they had seen a girl their age hanging around this address.
