Synopsis: The Dark Secrets of the Graveyard Statues
Newly divorced Derek and his teenage daughters Tulip and Pansy visit relatives in England, but they have no idea how closely the place they arrive at is linked to the one they've just left.
Yeah, it's basically about some statues in a graveyard in New Jersey, and some missing children from a town in England.
Excerpt: The Dark Secrets of the Graveyard Statues
Shields Gazette 21st June 1962
Speight of Disappearances Continues in South Shields
Over the past two years, six children have disappeared from our town. The most recent, Alice Layton,13, disappeared on Monday, while playing outside with friends. Her parents reported the disappearance after she failed to return home in the evening.
Alice is the sixth young child to disappear in similar circumstances since July 1960. Paul Ray, Mary Phillips, James Greek, Colin Gardner and Jacqueline Greyson have all gone missing in the past two years. Police do not know whether or not the disappearances are linked, but with so many young people vanishing seemingly without trace, the police think there could be some connection. Investigations are ongoing.
Dear Daisy,
I came to visit you again today . . . there is a new statue in the cemetery, a young girl.
