Sterling sat next to Tanner as they went through piles of paperwork, the Las Vegas killings racked her brain as she looked through the suspects. She sighed and closed one file and opened the other when her phone buzzed.

Papa- we need to talk now.

Her stomach twisted as the worst scenarios flew through her mind. The kids. She knew it was risky bringing them there.
"We need to go," she said to Briggs standing up just as the door swung open. Judd looked shaken, which made her legs weak. He never looked this way, the last time he did was when Scarlett had been compromised.
"You said we needed to talk?" Sterlings voice shook and Judd sighed.
"Sit down Ronnie," he said in a stern voice, and she sat.
"The kids found something," he started as his hands hit the table.
"May eighth, it matches up with the dates, everything matches up." Veronica froze, and Tanners hand rubbed his face.
"The killings, they match up with Scarletts death date. She was the ninth to die, just like the nine who are gonna be dead, Ronnie we are dealing with the same killer who killed Scarlett," He said, his eyes had tears in them. Sterling could feel her body shaking, but didn't know she was crying until the heart breaking shriek left her mouth and she collapsed into Tanners arms. He held her tight as tears of his own fell down his face.
"We are gonna get him, we will catch the bastard who did that to Scarlett" he said fiercely and she held on tighter. They were gonna solve this case, they had to, for Scarlett.
