Missing-person mystery
Someone walks out of a room, a town, or a life, and the story becomes the slow work of finding out where they went and what they left behind. These mysteries keep returning to the gap a missing person leaves: the friends who rearrange their lives around an empty chair, and the secrets that surface once somebody stops looking so politely. Expect dread, dead ends, and the uncomfortable sense that everyone knew more than they said.
