SETTING
This story takes place in the state of New Mexico in the winter where it is very cold.
The time period in this story is around the 1980s.
During this time period many teenagers did not have cell phones to communicate.
Because of this there would be no way to alert anyone about their alleged kidnappings.
Also because of the harsh cold weather the teenagers did not have a good chance of escaping.
