The midday sun shines on the beautiful white sands of a harbour beach facing the Pacific Ocean . There is no one else on the beach except a young girl , quietly walking westwards along the coast . Somehow a footstep shows up on the sand in front of the girl . Up close she can see that it is a fresh human footprint , which is approximately 15 centimeters in length .
