Chapter 109 - Prologue

A couple of weeks of not worrying that someone is going to murder me at any moment does a lot of good things for a girl's psyche. I'm enjoying the break from worrying that The Strangler is lurking around any corner just waiting for his chance to pounce. Putting a face with a name, or several faces, as it were, takes away the power and the mystique behind the character we've all built them to be in our minds. They were basically Schrödinger's serial killers. They can simultaneously be both anyone and no one at all until you put a face with the name.
