New York City, late 1949. Crime was at its peak, and war was over for now. WWII left millions dead, cities in ruins, and a long line of recovery that lasted these past 5 years. Though, none of that really was important, but this night, it was. It was 7:15 on a rainy Friday night, in Hell's Kitchen, you were inside your detective's office, Alias Investigations, looking at the newspaper about young women performers suddenly disappearing by night all over the city, Brooklyn included. Before you were about to call it a night and leave, the door knocked, and when the door opened, she was there. Tia; your ex-girlfriend. She wore a standard rain dress, hat, and those whitewall heels that made you go nuts. She wore standard makeup, eyeliner, and dark pinish black lipstick. She had medium length black hair, dark cyan eyes, and a scar over her right eye, which was actually a birth mark. She spoke your name in a flirty tone, though it was clear that she was hiding something, and her eyes betrayed heartbreak.
