Dean thought for a moment, then recalled overhearing Eddie talking with another couple on the dive boat about the regimen they followed daily. Low salt, low fat diet, lots of exercise, no alcohol, adamant about eating lots of fresh fruit and vegetables. "I seriously doubt that. I remember listening to Eddie talk. They were both very health conscious," Dean replied.

"No way someone could have slipped something into their drinks?" the doctor questioned again.

"I doubt it. If I remember correctly, all they drank was bottled water. What seems to be the problem? Did they have some kind of drug in their blood?" Dean could hear the doctor sigh on the other end.

"No. Unfortunately we couldn't get a blood sample," she began cautiously. "Colonel, Agent O'Malley said you're in the Intelligence Section, so I'm going to be a little more forthcoming with you as I was with her." She paused again, seemingly to gather her thoughts. "I posed the same questions to Agent O'Malley and also asked her about new drugs that may be out there that we don't know about yet. Unfortunately, she couldn't help me but suggested I talk to you."

"Let me get this straight. You couldn't get a blood sample? Did they bleed out? Couldn't you get a sample from where the bodies were found?"

"No, Colonel. We've tried everything and came up empty. You see...the blood, well, every drop of it had turned into a solid...set right up like concrete pellets...only it won't dissolve. It's the hardest damned thing I've ever seen. Looks like someone poured coffee grinds into their blood vessels. Is there a new weapon, or gas, or...something, that the military is experimenting with?"

Dean heard the explanation, but was unable to fathom what may have caused this. "No. Nothing. Unless it's something foreign that even we haven't heard about yet...but that's not likely. What could have caused that?"

"Well, damned if I know. I've never seen anything like this and I've seen some pretty messed up bodies in El Paso. I was hoping you might have a clue."

"I'll check with the other services and make some calls to some of the other agencies, but I seriously doubt if any of them will know anything. Something like this would be going through the network like wildfire."

"That's what I thought, but was hoping..."

"Besides the blood...was there anything else that was out of sync."

"There's one other thing that doesn't make any sense. We interviewed some of Mr. Lowe's students. One young man swore he saw Mr. Lowe that afternoon...actually bumped into him as he rounded a street corner."

"Hmm, what was the estimated time of death?"

"Well, that's what's strange. He swears he saw him at just about the same time we were taking out the body bags."

Dean did a mental shift and thought about the doubles for Officers Drake and DeVoe, and her and Katie. "Doctor, can you be reached 24-7?" Dean asked as she grabbed a pencil.

"Sure, just call my cell phone. If you hear anything, please call me. I always have it on.
