The following morning, Agent Force met Danni and Jaycee at the condo. Danni glanced behind the woman who stood at her front door, hoping to see Caleb. But she had come alone.

Sophie nosed her way to the front to greet the female artist.

“What a beautiful baby. May I pet her?”

“Of course, but step inside.” Danni moved out of the way, holding Sophie’s collar until the woman walked into the foyer.

Amy Force bent down to rub the Newfie’s neck. “Sophie, you’re such a pretty girl. I’m so happy to meet you.”

Danni cocked her head sideways. “How did you know her name was Sophie?”

“Oh, she’s famous down at the Bureau.” The woman grinned. “We’ve had great fun teasing Agent Samuels about his dog bites.”

“Oh . . .” Danni had never thought about that possibility. “That’s an unfortunate reputation for Sophie to have.”

“Don’t worry. We know she was protecting you.” The woman gave Sophie one last pat. “Isn’t that what dogs are for? Especially the big ones. And this girl is certainly big.” She looked around the condo. “Where do you want me to set up?”

“Would the dining room be okay?”

“Sounds great.” She followed Danni and Sophie through the living room and into the dining room, where Jaycee was waiting.

“Ms. Force, this is Jaycee Alexander. “Jaycee, Amy Force.”

“Nice to meet you. Is that all you brought with you?” Jaycee asked as she took a seat.

“Oh, yes.” Amy patted her laptop bag. “We travel light these days.” She pulled her compact computer from its case, set it on the table, and took a seat.

“May I get you a drink?” Danni asked.

“Perhaps later. I’m fine right now.”

“How long will this take?” Jaycee seemed to be intrigued by the process.

“About an hour each. Who would like to go first?”

“Why don’t I,” Jaycee suggested. “Then I can leave and go on to the restaurant if it’s getting too late.”

“Sounds like a great idea, Jay.” Danni took a seat.

After the artist had booted up her computer program, she turned to Jaycee. “So what can you tell me about how this man looked?”

Jaycee thought for a few seconds and then rattled off several general characteristics. “I would say he was about six feet tall. He had dark hair, dark eyes, and he wore a business suit.” She laughed nervously. “Although I suppose it doesn’t matter what he was wearing.”

“No, that’s fine.” The artist assured her. “Whatever helps you remember him. Just let your mind go back to that day and place. What else do you remember?”

In about an hour, Jaycee had told Amy Force everything she could remember, and they had gone over possible face profiles, finally coming up with a composite that pleased Jaycee.

“That looks almost exactly like him. How do you do that?”

The artist smiled. “Years of experience and a bit of luck. It helps when people remember unique facial characteristics, like you did. Our worst fear is having someone described as average.” She laughed. “You know, ‘He was average height, weight, and nothing about him really set him apart.
