1. 1. Francie's Got A Gun

   

   Over the course of a single, tension-filled day in a small town, a young girl disappears with a gun, setting off a search that exposes the quiet fault lines of family, friendship, and community. Told through interwoven perspectives—especially those of worried mothers and watchful neighbors—the story explores the messy intersections of fear, love, and responsibility, and how the threat of violence refracts through girlhood and parenthood, forcing everyone to confront what they owe to one another and what it takes to keep a child safe.
