Not surprisingly, I slept like absolute shit. Hell, it’s possible I didn’t sleep at all. I finally gave up long before dawn and grabbed a shower. I didn’t have to work, but—also, not surprisingly—I suddenly had a zillion questions about Ed and his appearance last night.

Add those to the zillion questions I had about Sofia and the shit at the lab, and I had a full day of detective work planned. Instead of simply throwing on the first piece of clean clothing I could find, I dressed with care—simple black shirt, khaki pants, and low black boots. I brushed my hair back into as neat a ponytail as I could manage, dousing it with plenty of hairspray to try to control the rampant frizz, and spent nearly fifteen minutes on my makeup, doing my best to be conservative yet “fresh!” as the magazine covers would say.

For the final touch, I downed some brains to make absolutely sure I didn’t smell.

Since it was still far too early in the day to do anything related to the lab, I chose instead to go to the morgue and do what research I could there. I brought my study guide with me in case anyone wondered why I was coming in to the office on my day off. It was easy enough to say that I needed a quiet place to study. Most people there knew that my home life was less than ideal, so it’d be a believable excuse.

As expected, it was nicely deserted, though the ever-present aroma of formalin greeted me upon entering. After logging on to the computer in the morgue, I pulled up a web browser and checked to see what was publicly available as far as information about Ed’s parents. It would have been a thousand times easier to simply look them up on Lexis Nexis, but unfortunately I hadn’t yet been trusted with the username and password for that. Damn it.

I had to wade through several pages of search results having to do with Ed as a suspect in the beheadings, but finally managed to reach a page—probably intended for genealogy searches—that gave me his parents’ full names, along with dates of birth and death.

Sam and Dawn Quinn. They had the same date of death, slightly over ten years ago, but no other information. A search for online obituaries yielded a little more information, but only useless stuff like where they went to school and shit like that.

I ended up scouring online information for close to an hour before I finally found an article that gave me some info that was worth a shit.
