Epilog

The abandoned vehicle had been reported by a pair of hikers, who saw it when they had walked a wide trail towards the ravine. At first they had worried someone was trapped inside, or even dead inside, but first responders quickly determined no signs of occupation and left the wreck in the hands of police, who matched the plate and van description to the one in the Spencer abduction case.

In the back of the van they discovered Shawn's blood-crusted plaid shirt, and more traces of Henry's blood, confirming it was the same van. They could find no fingerprints or DNA that would incriminate a possible suspect as Burgess' partner in crime.

The case went cold.

A/N: Listen, I don't know if I set this up for a sequel. But anything is possible. See y'all around.
