Chicago, 1975. A missing young woman. A city that doesn't ask questions unless it has to. Private investigator Vivian Kessler makes a living finding what other people would rather stay lost. When a routine missing-person case pulls her into the shadowed edges of Chicago's political and social fault lines, Vivian must navigate a world of half-truths, quiet bargains, and lives shaped by choices no one wants to name. As the case deepens, so does the cost. The city remembers everything-even when it pretends not to-and Vivian knows some answers come with consequences that don't fade when the job is done. The Missing Flower Child is a character-driven noir set in 1970s Chicago, blending hard-boiled investigation with literary restraint. It's a story about power, memory, and the moral weight of looking too closely at things meant to remain hidden.
