Shelly Brown

First Appearance: The Vanishings (1^st Book)

Shelly Brown was a good friend of Vicki before the rapture. She and Vicki lived in the same trailor park and went to the same school, so they hung out. Shelly’s mom was addicted to drugs and never took good care of Shelly. She was often on her own. She got caught up in the wrong crowd and would drink alcohol and smoke late at night. When Vicki found her after the disappearances, Shelly was in shock. She wouldn’t tell Vicki what happened to her. Shelly begins to get a bigger role later on in book five or six, (I don’t want to spoil anything). Vicki is her best friend throughout the book.
