Abby has lived in the horrible Mrs. Madison orphanage since childhood. She has never seen her parents, and almost a year ago her brother Simon vanished without a trace. He went to investigate the emergency wing of the orphanage—and after that, no one ever saw him again… Since then, Abby has noticed that other children are disappearing too! And the director behaves very strangely: she returns at night and becomes worse and worse toward the kids… But no one believes Abby—children could have escaped, and the director had always hated orphans! Maybe Abby is right? Or is something truly terrible happening in the Madison orphanage?
