CHAPTER IX HER DOUBLE
In the hush of a massive department store after hours, a young clerk named Lucile finds herself alone among towering stacks of books and dimly lit aisles. When a pale, ghost‑like figure appears in a narrow passage, her curiosity turns to unease, especially as a strange, white‑capped face watches from the shadows. The sudden arrival of Laurie, the newest employee in the children’s section, adds a fresh layer of intrigue when he slips her a mysterious note before disappearing into the darkness.
The brief encounter hints at secrets hidden behind the store’s bustling daytime façade—perhaps a theft, a hidden passage, or a daring escapade waiting to unfold. Lucile’s quick mind and brave spirit set the stage for a thrilling chase through narrow corridors and forgotten corners, inviting listeners to join her in unraveling the enigma before the clock strikes midnight.
