Rattlesnake Creek
Special Agent Beth Katz sat at her desk at the Rattlesnake Creek FBI field
office engrossed in a homicide case file. It was abundantly clear to her that
a serial killer roamed the communities in the nearby county of Mischief. It
was a case that triggered her carefully disguised dark side. This one she’d
investigate on her own, keeping all of her involvement secret, and if the
perpetrator proved to be unstoppable, she’d allow her alter ego to rise and
take him down. It had been a time since she’d given in to her dormant
impulses, and ignoring them hadn’t been easy. She understood her triggers,
and this string of unsolved murders was begging her personal attention.
Three deputies worked the case at the Mischief Sheriff’s Department,
and they’d created a list of suspects, but the men involved had produced
alibis for the times of the other murders. She scratched her head and leaned
back in her chair, staring at the long list of young women and girls found
dumped all over the communities of Wolf Valley, Buffalo Pass, and Second
Thought. The murders all had similarities. The young women and girls were
between thirteen and twenty and had seemingly vanished from the streets
and showed up miles from their homes, raped and strangled. Bodies had
been found in dumpsters, alleyways, deserted buildings, construction sites,
or just alongside the highway.
She checked out the Mischief Sheriff’s Department, and although it was
more than obvious these murders were the work of a dangerous serial killer,
no assistance had been requested. In fact, in a recent media statement the
sheriff had said he was interviewing suspects and suggested a local gang
might be involved. The case intrigued her, mainly because the local law
enforcement must have been blind not to have noticed the method of killing
was identical. It wasn’t a group of men, but one man who had committed
these crimes. Not only that, they’d used their local doctors to examine the
bodies. The medical examiner for the region, Dr.
Shane Wolfe, hadn’t been
called in for his opinion. The entire investigation stunk on ice, but it wasn’t
a case she wanted to explore with her partner, Agent Dax Styles. Although
Styles knew Cutthroat Jack was her father, he had no idea of her dark side
—and she needed to keep it that way. He wouldn’t understand that taking
out monsters was personal. The Mischief serial killer needed to be stopped
and she just happened to be the one to take him down.
It might take her a
little time, but she’d eventually find him. After taking one last look at the
files, she closed them, and using her cybercrime skills, removed any trace
she’d been snooping in the Mischief Sheriff’s Department database. She
smiled to herself as Styles walked into the office, his K-9, a Belgian
Malinois by the name of Bear, at his heels. This one is mine.
