My head shot straight up from my phone as i put the pieces together.

"I'm calling Garcia" Said morgan, whipping out his phone.

"Who?" I asked as my eyes scanned over the photo, my brain rushing to analyze anything i could.

"Penelope's palace of persuasion, how may I help you?" A woman said from the other side of the speaker.

"Garcia, Amare is sending you a picture. Can you find out where this beach is?" Morgan said, texting a number into my phone and sending a screenshot of the story.

"You know I can. Amare the new girl, yes?"

"Hi! Nice to meet you!" I said into the speaker.

"You too my opalescent mermaid queen." Penelope responded, making me laugh as she clicked away on her keyboard.

"Bradley Beach." She stated quickly.

"You're a life saver Garcia." Morgan sighed as i immediately started researching Bradley Beach.

"Yes I am. Keep me updated." She said, hanging up.

I narrowed my eyes at the picture once more and gasped.

"Her dress! I think I know what boutique that's from, I have one just like it!" I exclaimed excitedly. "And there we go! I looked it up on gps and they have one right on the boardwalk in Bradley. I'll text Garcia to look through the past few hours of CCTV footage."

"You're pretty good at this for someone on their first case." Morgan said, tilting his head.

"What can I say? i'm a natural." I sighed, flipping my hair.

"We're here." Announced Spencer, parking parallel near an alley which was taped off. A few cop cars hovered around and police stood in clusters taking notes and pictures.

I took a deep breath in and fiddled with my watch as Morgan hopped out of the car.

"You're uh, gonna be good at this." Spencer said, sensing my slight nervousness. I smiled and looked up at him as he took out the keys from the car. "We're just gonna see what we can find." He said, handing me a pair of gloves.  I slipped them on and nodded and we headed over to the officer who seemed to be in charge.

"Agents Morgan and Amare" morgan said, motioning between us; "Doctor Reid." He gestured to Spencer whose eyes darted around the crime scene.

"The bodies were found in that alleyway. No clear signs of anything yet, but we wanted to wait for yall to get here." The police officer spoke in a thick new york accent. "Both victims suffered blunt force trauma injuries to the face aswell as a singular bullet wound to the head, a .22 was believed to have been used, due to the minor skull fractures." He explained.

"We'll take a look." Said morgan, sliding his gloves on and leading Spencer and I over. I stepped over the tape and walked towards the bodies which had been draped with white sheets. We searched the area for a good 20 minutes, but found no traces of dna or clues.

"Whoever this unsub is, he sure did a good job of cleaning up his tracks." I puzzled, taking my gloves off and placing my hands on my hips.

"Let's call Hotch and tell him we have a lead. it's only 4:30, so we have some time." Morgan said, reaching into his pocket for his phone.

Spencer and I went to talk to the police officer.
"Find anything?" he asked eagerly.

"Not yet. We think we have a lead, though." I say hopefully, running a hand through my hair.
