Intersection of 100th Street and Broadway

The Intersection of 100th Street and Broadway is the site of a recorded sighting of Kendra Rae Phillips that connects her to Shani Edmonds’s disappearance. Its importance comes not from a developed account of the streetscape, but from a terse entry in Richard Wagner’s handwritten notes: a location, a date, and a sequence of actions that allows Nella Rogers to understand what happened to Shani.

The Location in the Record

The intersection appears among notes about Kendra Rae Phillips, recorded across decades and written in Richard Wagner’s hand. Earlier entries include a possible sighting upstate on January 5, 1986, and an uncertain 1992 note suggesting she had moved to Paris. The record’s final entry brings the sequence to the Intersection of 100th Street and Broadway on October 20, 2018, making the location part of a longer, unresolved trail rather than an isolated address.

The October 2018 Sighting

The final note describes a confirmed sighting of Kendra Rae Phillips near the intersection, says she took Shani Edmonds’s phone, and records that she then went underground. The compressed phrasing turns the place into a hinge between presence and disappearance: Kendra is reported nearby, Shani’s phone is taken, and Kendra vanishes from view.

Nella’s Discovery

Nella encounters the location while examining a photograph of Kendra Rae Phillips’s page in the notes. Reading the final entry, she realizes that Shani Edmonds was the person put into the black sedan. The location therefore does more than mark a sighting: it helps Nella connect the written record to Shani’s fate and to the threat unfolding around her.
