A disappearance with no witnesses, no clues — and a police officer who might know more than he’s saying

A Vanishing That Shocks the Bay

Summer Bay has weathered countless storms, but nothing has shaken the town quite like the sudden disappearance of Mackenzie Booth. One moment she was living her life as normal — the next, she was simply gone. Now, with Levi Fowler leading a relentless search that continues to raise more questions than answers, the community is on edge.

For the past two days, Levi has worked through every possible clue. However, each path he follows ends the same way: abruptly, and without explanation. There are no recordings, no sightings, and no digital trail. Mac vanished as though she stepped off the face of the earth.

A Calm Before the Crisis

Friends insist that Mackenzie showed no signs of emotional distress before she disappeared. She was discussing work schedules, planning her week, and talking about mundane responsibilities. Nothing suggested she was preparing to leave her life behind.

But Levi doesn’t buy it.

Insiders say he is convinced there’s more to the story. His decision to lead the search personally — even while off duty — has raised quiet concern inside the police station. Officers wonder whether this is simply a case he wants to solve… or something far more personal.

The Message That Changes Everything

Adding to the mystery is a rumour spreading fast across the Bay. Hours before she disappeared, Mac reportedly received a mysterious message. No one knows its contents, and police refuse to confirm the claim. What locals do insist on is Levi’s reaction when he first checked her phone — a moment that set the rumour mill alight.

Was the message a warning? A threat? A call for help?

Levi isn’t saying, and his silence is only deepening suspicion.

Levi’s Search Turns Obsessive

Despite repeated sweeps of key locations, Levi continues to revisit the same areas — bush tracks, coastal paths, remote viewpoints. Witnesses say he has been out late at night with a flashlight, refusing rest, driven entirely by instinct and mounting fear.

Friends describe him as tense, restless, and focused to the point of exhaustion. Many now believe Levi knows something he is refusing to share. Others fear he is racing against a clock that is already running out.

A Town Losing Hope

The longer Mackenzie remains missing, the more panicked Summer Bay becomes. As whispers spread, so does the dread. If Levi, with all his training and his relentless determination, cannot find her — what does that mean?

And more importantly:

Where is Mackenzie Booth?
Who sent that message?
And why does it feel like someone doesn’t want her to be found?
