IT TOOK LONGER THAN THIRTY MINUTES FOR WAYNE EDWARD TO CALL Daniel back. But when he did, Daniel was waiting, wide awake, and The Castle was empty except for a skeleton crew of night security. He monitored the security terminus alone.

“Sorry that took so long,” Wayne said when Daniel answered on the first ring.

“Don't worry about it. I'm awake.”

“Yeah, what's new? Have you ever slept in the fifteen years I've known you?”

“Rarely.”

“Well, here's what I've got. I ran both images through Identix. Neither one has a confirmed criminal history, and believe me, if they did, Identix would find it. As far as that goes, they're both clean.”

“And the surveillance footage?”

“That,” Wayne said, “is where things get interesting. I got one confirmed hit of the male suspect on that length of tape. He's on camera for almost an hour taking pictures the entire time. My guess is that he's not using a standard digital camera, but I can't confirm it. In one shot he gives the security camera a direct glance for about ten seconds. He knows he's being watched.”

Daniel sucked on his front teeth, pondering. “Interesting. What about the girl?”

“Wait till you hear this. According to the time stamps on the footage you provided, I've got about six months worth of tape.”

“Yeah, that's about right.”

“Well, I was able to get a facial recognition hit of the female suspect's face more than one hundred and twenty times.”

“What?”

“From what I can tell, she went to the display every Monday through Friday during that time.”

Daniel tilted his head to one side and narrowed his eyes. “I see. Thanks.”

“She's not bad looking.”

“Don't be deceived. She's a clever one.”

Wayne laughed. “They usually are. Well, good luck with that, man. Seems like you've got an issue on your hands.”

Daniel glared at the computer screen. “Nothing I can't handle.”
