Synopsis Mystery at Mirror Lake by : Myra Galloway

Mystery at Mirror Lake: Lost Girls is about issues with our children and social media and their safety. It takes place in a small mountain town in North Carolina. Denton Gage is the sheriff of Mirror Lake. He has come from New York City and the NYPD, where he has had lots of experience with social media crime and how it has greatly affected the safety of our children. This story will show just how vulnerable our children can be and how it doesn’t take a metropolitan area to create a threat. It gives Denton the opportunity to work with his friend Jack Abrams, FBI agent in charge, once again. As they work together resolving these disappearances, they realize that things are not always as they seem. It goes to the importance of listening to our children, being there for them, and being aware of what they are interested in, not just their friends, but teaching them the way to be responsible when venturing out in the world seeking knowledge to always be willing to ask questions. Anything can happen anywhere.
