MY CELL PHONE rang as I was walking out to my car, with Dr. Lanza’s name on the caller ID. “Hiya, Doc,” I said as I answered the phone. “Where’d ya find it? You did find it, right?”

“Kara,” Doc said, voice strangely rough, “I’ve been a forensic pathologist for almost fifteen years, I’ve done over five thousand autopsies, but I’ve never ever seen anything like this.”

“What are you talking about?”

“I found the symbol.” “Okay. Where was it?”

Silence.

“Doc?” I prompted. “Where was it?”

“Jesus, Kara. You’re not going to believe this, and I have absolutely no explanation for how the symbol got there. I mean, there are no entry wounds to explain it…. I suppose it’s possible, but—”

“Doc! Where the hell did you find it?”

“It was … on the inside of her uterus, Kara. Just, for the love of God, please don’t ask me to explain how it got there.”

After I hung up, I sat in my car and stared at the phone. If I’d ever wanted physical confirmation that these murders were arcane in nature, I’d just gotten it. Could a demon have placed that symbol? Tessa had said that there were two sources of the traces. Could the killer be summoning and using a demon to help? Once again, I was way out of my depth.

Explain that one, Harris.
