Last Stop, Karvonia

Words: 2987 · Source Novel:: The Fire We Carry

Elena Pearson arrives in the gritty capital of Karvonia after her brother Leo stops communicating during his backpacking trip. The local police, led by Commander Dragovic, dismiss her concerns with a signature on a missing person form that no one will read. Retracing Leo's steps, she discovers he visited the warehouse district, specifically a company called TransEuro Logistics that advertises international moving services. Posing as a customer, Elena tours the facility and notices something odd: the trucks have padlocked internal panels that regular moving vans never use. She retrieves Leo's phone from a bribed clerk, and the last video shows him hiding inside one of those trucks, whispering, “They don't move boxes—they move people.”
