The photos weren’t trophies. They were blueprints.

Forensics matched Vance’s fingerprints to a sealed juvenile record: Robert Vance, age 14. Convicted of arson. The target? His own family home. Case notes revealed a volatile father, a fire set to "make the screaming stop." His younger sister perished in the blaze. Vance vanished after juvie, presumed dead. Until now.

"He’s recreating the trauma," Thorne realized. "The broken homes, the terrified families... he’s making them relive his nightmare." Grim wasn’t just for intimidation—Shepherds were used in search-and-rescue. Vance had trained him to find emotional triggers: children’s toys, wedding albums, anything that screamed "happy family."

Then, the pattern shifted.

A new address appeared in Vance’s lair: 22 Oak Lane. Rivera recognized it instantly—Serena Cole, a child psychologist who’d consulted on Vance’s case 15 years ago. Her notes called him "a shattered boy who blamed himself for failing to save his sister."

Thorne sped to Oak Lane, sirens wailing. Too late.

Cole’s front door gaped open, alarm panel dark. Inside, furniture stood pristine—no ransacking. Only a single item stolen: her therapy notebook on Vance’s case. On the kitchen counter, a Polaroid fluttered to the floor.

The image: Vance as a boy, holding his sister’s hand. Scribbled beneath in red ink: "She didn’t scream. YOU DID."

Serena Cole was gone. So was Grim.

And on Vance’s evidence wall, a new photo appeared: Detective Aris Thorne’s front door.
