"Did you not know, Ms. Sophie? The boss swung by a while back, but he just stayed for a couple of days before heading off again. He mostly came to grab a bunch of documents. Honestly, if he hadn't shown up, Summerfield would still be in chaos from the recent mess."
Sophie paused for a moment after hearing Kena's words.
So, Odie must have picked up on something being off way earlier than she'd thought. She hadn't figured Odie had such a knack for keeping things under wraps.
"Ms. Sophie, since you're in town, why not crash at my place for a few days? Summerfield's been a bit of a madhouse lately, but my place is still pretty safe. The Gibbs family has a ton of info; if you're interested, I can get it all laid out for you."
"Thanks, but... we can't hang around too long."
With Odie still missing, every day they stayed could mean more danger for him, especially with whoever's lurking in the shadows.
Seeing Sophie's decision, Kena didn't push but offered, "There's loads more about the Gibbs family. Since you're heading out, I'll have everything copied and sent to your phone. It'll be easier to go through that way."
"Sounds good."
"But fair warning, there's a lot to sift through."
"No worries."
Sophie and Colby were about to leave when Sophie suddenly turned to Kena, "By the way, Polly, have you heard of... The Silent Shadows?"
Kena looked a bit puzzled at the mention, "The Silent Shadows... that's a strange name. Never heard of it. What made you bring it up, Ms. Sophie?"
"Just curious. Since you took over as the head of the Gibbs family, have you gotten any strange letters or invites?"
Kena thought for a moment, then shook her head, "Nope, nothing like that."
"No one's come knocking?"
