Grace\u2019s heart races as she discovers her 78-year-old grandfather\u2019s old school diary, filled with secrets and a mysterious address. With Grandpa Henry missing and no clues in sight, Grace clings to the hope the diary offers. Will she find her Grandpa before it\u2019s too late?\n

Our family is pretty close. I live with Mom, Dad, and Grandpa.\n

At 15, I often feel like my heart is big enough to hold all the love in the world. One person who takes up a lot of that space is my Grandpa Henry. He\u2019s 78 years old, quiet, and reserved, but I know he loves me deeply.\n

Sometimes, he has memory lapses, but that doesn\u2019t bother me. I cherish every moment with him.\n

Later that evening, I walked into Grandpa Henry\u2019s room with his favorite tea.\n

He looked at me, his eyes confused. \u201cWho are you?\u201d he asked, his voice trembling.\n

My heart sank. \u201cIt\u2019s me, Grace. Your granddaughter.\u201d\n

And then, one afternoon, the worst happened.\n

Grandpa disappeared.\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
