After all this time, it was almost impossible to remain so close yet still stay quiet. Hands trembled, and the field glasses they were holding shook, too, as did the murderer brought into focus.

A murderer who smiled, even laughed. A killer out for a pleasant ride with an attractive companion. In the distance, mountains formed a scenic backdrop, while the first hints of a fiery sunset stained thin, stippled clouds. The vegetation, too, added to the beauty, the shrubs and pale, yellow grasses clothing the dry land in deceptive softness.

The image jerked as the watcher’s hands spasmed at the injustice, the fucking wrongness of the scene. Where were the lost boy’s smiles and laughter? Where were his twilight rides, his dates, and his enjoyment of a crisp, late winter evening? She imagined herself taking snapshots, putting them into an album.

His murderer had robbed her of that, of that and all the countless happy memories they would have made together. Had robbed her of her family, too, as she had dashed it all to pieces against the rocks of grief.

But to night, this very night, she was going to balance the scales of those injustices in a way the legal system had been too corrupt or cowardly to do. And her way would be more satisfying, she suspected, already relishing the soothing balm of blood upon her hands.
