The police immediately launched an investigation and set about tracing everyone who was in the park that night but soon encountered frightened young people too afraid to talk. While Sophie’s boyfriend survived this terrible ordeal, Sophie sadly died and the police were now hunting for a murderer. Sophie and her boyfriend were Goths who stood out from the crowd.
