Chapter 23

At first,I was worried they were on to me. There's only so much I can control.

The political fallout wasn't part of the plan, but I can see now that it should be. It's working perfectly. Even better than I could've planned.

The connection to Agent Shepard is a brilliant twist. One that should keep him off my back.

It's why I chose to kill him first.

It was harder than I thought to do it. He struggled. I hadn't expected that. He knew what was at stake. He should've been prepared.

But now that I've started, I can't stop.

A few more days.

A few more kills.

Then I'll be free.
