EPILOGUE

Jack turned off the TV. Another day, another press conference poor Jo had to give a statement during. Better her than him, though. She had the kind of face made for TV.

“He's taking a plea deal, you know,” Jo said when she rejoined Jack at the police station. “I think the judge is going to take it easy on him. He's a first-time offender and with a pregnant girlfriend, if she’ll still have him. He doesn't exactly scream criminal mastermind.”

“What did I tell you about a crime of passion, Jo?”

Jo rolled her eyes. “I know, I know. Do you want me to actually say it? 'You're right, I'm wrong.' I just...I just feel bad for him, Jack. It's weird, isn't it? We spent all this time trying to crack the case, and when we do, we don't like the outcome.”

“It is what it is,” Jack said. “You'll get used to that someday.”

“So what next?” Jo asked.

“Go home. Take a break. Don't go looking for cases. They always have a way of finding us. For me, I’m off to see Melissa. It’s been too long.”

Jo smiled and gave Jack a nod of reassurance that not only was he a good dad, but also everything would be all right with Melissa.
