Martinez shoved the drama from her mind as she looked at the result that was on her computer screen. They had identified the man in her absence. Miguel Sanchez, a pharmacist in a drug store a couple blocks away from the precinct, and whose registered address was another apartment on Banner Avenue. She was not going to wait until morning to go after him and so she tried calling Manning, but got no response. She hung up and tried a couple more times again reminded that Connelly was not there, had he been there he would have stayed to work late with her. Had he opt to go home he would have answered her phone call on the first ring.

She looked around the precinct to see who she could get to accompany her to stake out his place until morning when they could get a warrant- she found no one about. Refusing to leave it alone she told the uniform at the front desk what she was going to be doing and told him to be sure to keep an ear out for a call in case he needed backup.

She got into her car and drove to the pharmacy. At this time of the night the area was deserted except for a few of the working girls who loitered about. She took the opportunity to ask a couple if they recognized any of the girls from the facial reconstruction photos, but they all ignored her casting nervous glances to a white pickup truck that was parked on the side of the road behind them, with the engine still running and the dark windows rolled up.

She gave an exasperated sigh and walked towards the van, then slapped her badge on the window and motioned for the occupants to roll their windows down. She knew it was a dangerous move and quite stupid, but she was not leaving without some information.

When the windows didn’t budge she slapped the pictures of the dead women against the window one by one. As she got to the fourth photo the window came down and the thick smell of marijuana assaulted her nostrils.

“Recognize any of these women?” she asked the beefed up Caucasian guy with a tribal tattoo on one side of his face, as he blew smoke through the window.

“You got some balls of steel lady,” he said and took the pictures. “Ain’t scared in these parts of town at this hour?”

Martinez was honestly not sure what time it was, and she didn’t bother to check. She needed to do something useful before this man decided to start another garden because they had commandeered his.

“Just look at the damn pictures,” she ordered the guy who chuckled and flipped the light on inside his van. Martinez had known he was not alone, but was surprised to see a familiar face. The face of a drug addict she had helped off the streets the year before. The woman smiled at her and Martinez chuckled.

“Still running off playing superwoman on your own, Martinez?” The woman asked with a warm smile.
