shattered glass, probably no more than a paper cut, but it was there. “Think there will be enough to test?” Walter asked.
“Doubtful. And it’s odd that there isn’t a glass missing from the room. This may be old. Mark, give us room lights.”
She eased back to her feet. “Check the trash bag for any hint. And swab that stain on the wallpaper. It looks like a liquid splash the way it trails down.”
She took a step back trying to get perspective on what she knew from what she suspected. No fingerprints. Everything else maybe. If she made the wrong call…“Walter, I’m going to go give Dave a heads-up. I want the room sealed when we’re done and an officer assigned to sit outside the door and make sure it stays that way. Get a forensic team working on the paper trail—
the guest signature card that was filled out, anything with room service.” “Will do.”

The audio was that of the reporter and cameraman talking to the station manager; this feed was not going out to a live audience. When the camera panned left to right, the back of the building appeared dark.
“Tactical is there,” Mike observed. “There’s (uinn.”
“Dave.”
“Not now, Lisa. Someone took a shot at Shari.”
“We found the room.”
“I’ll be done—” He spun around. “What did you say?”
