Axton is definitely in trouble, and her only clue is his backpack. ![]() A black SUV has been tailing her, and two men have broken into her apartment to have a "friendly" chat with her. The police won't do anything for 48 hours, but Rose knows she can't wait that long. So she's concerned that he hasn't checked in with her, his co-workers, his roommate, or his family. ![]() Rose has known Axton Graystone forever, from first grade through high school, and though he's not a model citizen - he's been arrested for possession a couple of times - she knows he would never leave without letting her know where he's going.
