TAKEN! 10 – THE TEMPTRESS

They were in New York City, consulting on a case.

Over the last five days, six men had been found dead in various hotel rooms across the city, the fourth man was the brother-in-law of a United States Senator, and it was his death that spurred the task force to creation.

The dead men had all been drugged before having their throats cut, and their killer was a woman.

In fact, they had footage of her from several different surveillance cameras. The woman was a brunette, tall, with a beautiful face and figure. They knew what she looked like, but little else.

In several bars near the scenes of the murders, bartenders told investigators that the woman seemed to target married men, and that when they left the bar, the man always left first, perhaps to secure a room for a promised tryst. It fit the pattern; all six men had been found inside rooms that they themselves had paid for.

Seated across from Jessica and her husband at the round conference table was an old acquaintance, FBI Agent, Theresa Ramos. Ramos had been one of the agents on duty years ago when Jessica’s father was targeted by a serial killer named Stiletto.

Stiletto managed to out-maneuver the FBI and gained access to Jessica’s home, but was eventually stopped by the man who would become her husband.

Ramos was in her mid-forties, attractive, with long dark hair and dark eyes. As the agent-in-charge of the taskforce, it was her responsibility to gather all available information and see that it was studied and evaluated for its worthiness in leading them towards the killer. There’s just one problem though, there is no information, their killer may as well be a ghost.

“As much as I hate to point it out,” Jessica said. “We need more info, and unfortunately, that probably equates to more victims.”

Seated beside her husband was the police department liaison, Lieutenant Thomas Delaney. Delaney was a big man with short black hair and a moustache. He nodded in agreement while pointing at the evidence board.

“Dr. White is right; all we have to go on so far are assumptions. All six of these men were supposedly happily married, and yet, they met our killer in a hotel room. That tells us more about the victims than their killer. We need to know more about her.”

“The murders are happening at a rapid rate, what does that tell us about her?” Ramos said to Jessica.

“It tells us that she’s coming apart. She’s blatant in her actions. She makes no attempt to hide her face from hotel security cameras and the coroner report shows that she never hesitates while using the knife. Each man’s throat was opened by a single deep slash, and yet, if you look at the security film, when she leaves the room her clothing is clean. She must be taking precautions so that no blood gets on her, but if I had to guess why, I’d say that it was due more to distaste for the uncleanliness of it, rather than an attempt to evade detection.
