The Search

When Hannah’s friends couldn’t find her anywhere, they alerted the authorities without wasting another minute. They immediately launched a search near the shoreline and on a nearby island named St. Thomas, thinking she might have swept with the stream. While Hannah’s friends kept searching for her at the mercy ships, the coast guards continued their search by flying over the island with the help of three helicopters. The chaos that came along with the storm had made the search more difficult, it was like searching “for one white gal in a sea of troubles and suffering.” said Hannah’s friends.
