“This is the kaleidoscope,” Dink said, removing it from the box. “See, he took all the glass out.”

Josh touched the jewels that decorated the kaleidoscope. “Are these real?” he asked.

“Sammi said they were,” Dink answered.

Ruth Rose was examining the pieces of glass. “Where are the yellow pieces?” she asked.

“What do you mean?” Dink asked.

“The piece we found is yellow,” she said. “But all I see here is red and blue. No yellow.”

“That’s weird,” Dink said. “Let’s look around.”

The kids began to search Sammi’s room for the yellow glass. Pal waddled around, sniffing everything.

Dink checked in the bathroom while Josh went through the clothes in the closet. Ruth Rose got down on her hands and knees and looked under the bed.

“Well, if there’s yellow glass in this room, I don’t know where it is,” Josh said. He stepped away from the closet.

“WATCH OUT!” Ruth Rose yelled, stopping Josh in his tracks.

She snatched something from the carpet where Josh was about to step. It was another piece of yellow glass.

Just then, the phone rang.

Dink ran down the stairs and grabbed the phone on its third ring.

“Hello?”

Dink listened for a minute, then yelled up the stairs, “Hey, guys, it’s Officer Fallon. He wants to know if Sammi’s pajamas and slippers are in his room. Can you look?”

He waited. Ruth Rose came to the top of the stairs. “No pj’s or slippers,” she said.

Dink spoke into the phone. “We can’t find them.”

After a minute, Dink hung up the phone. He climbed the stairs to Sammi’s room.

“What’s up with the slippers?” Josh asked.

“Ron Pinkowski found a gold tassel near the river by his bait shop,” Dink said. “Sammi’s slippers had gold tassels on them.”

“But what—”

“And one of Mr. Pinkowski’s boats is missing,” Dink interrupted.

He stared at his two friends. “Officer Fallon thinks the kidnappers took Sammi away in a boat!”
