The full moon pierced the night sky over the bustling city. As Roger satisfied his hunger, others focused their attention on finding the truth to the plight of the split couple. Det. Cleveland was on his way toward the sleeping beauty at Southern General Hospital. His trip back was similar to his drive in the opposite direction. However, he had the answer to his original question; Jane Doe was Lois Belkin. While this information was enough to solve the original case, it only answered part of the Belkin question—half in fact. He knew the location of Ms. Belkin, but Mr. Belkin was out wandering in the city building a rap sheet.

The glowing red “Emergency” sign burned into Det. Cleveland’s eyes. He slowed to pull into the parking lot as he grabbed his cellular phone and dialed his protégé, Charlie, back at the fort.

He answered on the first ring as he kept the desk phone positioned between his keyboard and his late night snack, a double-decker Buddy Burger with extra pickles. He knew it was Det. Cleveland on the other line even before a spoken word. Charlie was a “fly on the wall” back at the station, something he had perfected, and he would use the “buzz” to enhance his research for Det. Cleveland.

“Yello?”

“Charlie, I know the identity of our Jane Doe. She is Lois Belkin from Dietrich Road. I need to ask a huge favor. Could you pull up any information on other family members of the Belkin’s in the area?” Det. Cleveland rambled.

“I’m at Southern General Hospital now. Get back to me Charlie as soon as you have any information.

Charlie sat down and leaned in to his desk.

“Okay, okay. No problem. Hey. You gotta get this Belkin before he causes any more trouble.”

Charlie heard Roger’s name mentioned at the dispatcher’s desk about two hours ago after a call-in over the businessman’s car debacle. Now that the patrolmen had returned from Roger’s home with a report to the captain, Roger’s name was moving up on the list of fugitive priorities.

Det. Cleveland paused, and then hung up the phone. He pulled his sedan into a spot marked “Police Parking Only.”

As Det. Cleveland slammed his car door, a smaller and more compact door slammed across the city. It was Carol, another interested party thrown into the middle of her sister’s case, but for her, she didn’t know the brunt of the situation. The door she slammed was to the microwave oven as she popped in a TV dinner to satisfy a late-night craving.

Carol gave up on her voyage into the city, which turned her date with a baked black bean burrito into jury-duty with a three-cheese ravioli dinner frozen for nearly a year in the back of her freezer. Her husband, Robert, had phoned her about an hour ago and told her about a last minute overnight business trip to his company’s sister office. She knew he probably had this planned for a while,
