To make no mistakes is not in the power of man; but from their errors and mistakes the wise and good learn wisdom for the future.

—Plutarch

Thursday morning—day number ten of this case—I was sitting in my cubicle alone. Just me. Nobody else. The chief was gone—meetings. Gabe Wagner was gone—with Fischer. JT was gone—interviewing some more students.

It was just me and the phones, which weren’t ringing.

I was bored.

I was lonely.

And for the first time since I started with the PBAU, I felt like a lowly intern. It sucked.

Trying to make good use of my time, I opened a new word-processing document and poised my fingers over the keys. Just as I was about to type the first word, the phone rang.

Hallelujah.

I had never answered a phone so fast. “PBAU, this is Sloan Skye speaking. How may I help you?”

“Hello, my name’s Fran Doonan. I’m calling for Agent Jordan Thomas. I got his card from a neighbor.”

“I’m sorry, he’s out of the office. May I help you?”

“I suppose so. I was told Agent Thomas is investigating the Fitzgerald High murderer. I have a photograph I need to show him. I live next door to Emma Walker. I was taking pictures of my cat, when I caught something on film. I was hoping he—or someone—could come to my home so I could show him the photograph.”

A few days ago, this would have been a simple situation. I would have taken the woman’s address and told her I’d be there within the hour.

Not so, now.

“May I please have your address and phone number, and I’ll try to reach Agent Thomas and give him the message?”

She rattled off the information, and I thanked her for calling. Then I ended the call with a promise to get back to her ASAP. I grabbed my cell phone and called JT.

It rang.

And rang.

And rang.

No answer.

Finally it clicked over to voice mail. I left him a message, giving him all the pertinent details; then I tried the chief.

Her phone rang.

And rang.

And rang.

No answer.

Same with Chad Fischer’s.

It seemed everyone was too busy to answer ringing cell phones.

There was nothing more I could do, though there was plenty I wanted to do.

Frustrated and annoyed, I went back to my blank word-processing page to write out our sketchy profile as it currently stood:
