Dedication Dedicated to the men and women who put their lives on the lines for the rest of us. Epigraph For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but so that the world might be saved through Him. John 3:16–17 NASB Chapter One MONDAY, NOVEMBER OUTSIDE WASHINGTON, DC “A third victim has been found and a serial killer is once again thought to be terrorizing the Northeast—just east of the territory Peter Romanos paralyzed with his string of murders,” Rachel Goodwin reported from her position outside the prison. “Peter Romanos, who is incarcerated in the new high-security DC federal penitentiary, is serving twelve life sentences. Only this time, instead of teenage girls, this particular killer is targeting older women. That’s all the information I have at the moment. I hope to know more soon.” The camera panned away from the woman, and clips of Romanos’s arrest thirteen years ago took over the screen.
