Christine Listers has always been beyond bright for her age, earning her a promised spot in the BAU. She planned on honouring the badge that her father wore. But joining the BAU means more than just solving cases-it means stepping into the darkest corners of the human mind. The unit becomes more than a job - it becomes home. A family stitched together by late nights, shared fears, and battles no one else could ever understand. And somewhere between case files and crime scenes, she finds herself drawn to Dr Spencer Reid.
