Kara Koptesky, an out going and somewhat rebellious 17 year old, left for school on Monday May 4, 2007. She never came back. In the small town where she lives, rumors quickly circulate--she'd run away before, had she done it again? The police struggle to find any real leads. THEN ANOTHER LOCAL GIRL GOES MISSING.
