Birds of a Feather
To tell this story correctly, and so you fully understand the events that have transpired, I’m going to have to start with when I met my wife. It was freshman year in college and on the first day, three rows up from my seat in my biology class, a girl with long, curly red hair asked a question. The teacher, thoroughly impressed with her, answered and then asked her name. She said it was Janice. I knew right then that I had to meet her. Over the next few weeks, I saw her in two of my other classes as well, sitting up straight, taking notes, the whole deal. She was smart, the type of smart that worked hard to keep it that way. I loved that about her. As I came to realize, intelligence can’t trump emotion. In the end, feelings always win. But that comes later.

The Man in the Kitchen
Detective Riley stepped into the house. He’d been pouring over leads for the missing woman case when they’d gotten the call to the residence, and it was nice to have a change of scenery. Taking a seat on the small wooden bench near the door, he slipped off his shoes and replaced them with the thin plastic crime scene booties. The tile was cold beneath his feet and his toes curled for a moment in reflex. The house was quiet — he’d asked for some time alone, it was part of his process.
