On top of the table in my Washington apartment, there was a large report that I had already given the once over. It was terrible. The most horrifying thing I had ever come across in my entire career. Peter wanted me to take this case on. He wanted me to get on the first plane to Arizona and to turn up at the FBI office in Phoenix to lend them a hand.
A vicious beast of a person was kidnapping children, pulling their eyes out with the help of some sort of blunt object—most probably a worn out screwdriver—, murdering them by using a plastic wrap to suffocate them, and then leaving their bodies abandoned in the vast County of Maricopa, one of the largest in the United States.
Looking at the photos of the little kids made your heart miss a beat and one could ask themselves what type of monster was capable of carrying out such brutality. Even for an expert in criminal profiles like myself, there were still things that shocked me, that flew past the line of my comprehension of how brutal and cruel a person could be.
I had had a long chat with Liz before making my decision. Our relationship had improved, my nightmares seemed to have slowed down and we were closer than ever. There was no guarantee that she could go to Arizona with me, despite being a member of the FBI and forming part of what I arrogantly and pompously referred to as my team. I didn't have any staff; what I always tried to do was give my best colleagues the most complicated tasks, the ones that required all of the skills I lacked. I almost always got my way, but I was never really sure if that was going to work or not. Liz, Tom and Mark, my team, had their own jobs and, pulling them out of their offices in Quantico would mean that they would be leaving behind other tasks that could be as or even more relevant than the ones I had.
