Current Day:
 My protagonist currently works as a detective in
New York mainly working with armed robbery and
kidnapping. He helps others around him so they
don’t have to go what he went through with his
parents. He mainly works with kidnapping but does
not solve murders as he worries that it will mentally
affect him because of his parents getting killed.
