Reagan and April left, and I waited for Shawn outside the doors to the administration building again. I didn’t have to wait long before he walked around the corner. “Well?”

“Heather said she packed the plaque and Amy’s mom took it when they boxed up all of Amy’s belongings.”

“Did you get an address?”

He nodded. “I did, but she lives in Washington.”

“Shit,” I groaned. I didn’t have the file in front of me, and we were talking about something we’d searched a month beforehand, so I’d forgotten.

“Yeah, and Heather said she never saw the plaque until she was boxing up Amy’s stuff.”

“So, he leaves the plaque after he kills them?”

“He has to be.”

“That makes no sense when it comes to Reagan.” I wasn’t going to tell him about my conversation with April. It wasn’t because I wanted to hide anything from my partner; I trusted him with my life. But if Jessica was behind everything, I wanted to know for sure before I did tell Shawn.

“I know. I’m going to call Amy’s mom and see if she’ll mail it to us. Then we can dust it for prints.” The chain of custody had been broken, given that the crime scene had been released, and Heather had gone back home to pack up and move.

“And have her check for a number on the back,” I reminded him. Wooden objects weren’t the best to get fingerprints from, but at this point, since we had nothing, I wanted to see if we could recover anything that wasn’t Heather’s or Amy’s parents’ DNA.

“Yeah, I’ll try her now.”

I bobbed my head in agreement. “I’m going to go down and see what Will has found.”

“I’ll meet you down there.”

When I got down to the basement, the receptionist looked up from her computer and smiled. “Detective Valor, you’re back.”

“Sergeant Valor,” I corrected.

“Oh, sorry.”

I opened my mouth to ask her how long she’d worked in the IT department, but my phone started to ring inside the pocket of my suit jacket. I pulled it out and saw it was my father calling. I turned and walked to stand next to the elevator. “Hey.”

“Son.”

“What’s up?”

“When were you going to tell me that Jessica has a restraining order against you?”

“It’s a protective order,” I clarified. As though that was better. I’d called my mother to tell her that we weren’t coming for our monthly dinner and explained why, so of course, she’d told my father. I wasn’t trying to keep it from him; I just had a lot on my mind given the circumstances.

“Ethan!” he scolded.

“I’m handling it, Dad.”

“How?”

I rubbed the back of my neck. “It’s connected to the …” I hesitated, then lowered my voice because I wasn’t that far away from the receptionist. “Remember how I told you someone broke into Reagan’s place, and that was why I asked you to change the locks?”

“Yeah.”

“We have evidence that the break-in is connected to the murders I’m investigating.”

There was a brief pause. “There’s a serial killer in Chicago?”

“Yeah.” I sighed. The elevator dinged, and Shawn stepped out.
