Criminal Minds
Vivian Clarke joins Agent Aaron Hotchner's elite Behavioural Analysis Unit, where she quickly becomes an invaluable asset; intelligent, perceptive, and effortlessly capable under pressure. But beneath her confidence lies a history of trauma, control and survival that she has never fully confronted. What no one at the BAU knows is that Vivian was not only assigned to the team as a profiler but placed there under quiet, classified instruction to observe and assess their unit chief, Aaron Hotchner himself. And the closer Vivian gets to understanding him, the more she risks exposing the truth behind her own assignment, a truth that could shatter the fragile trust she has built inside the BAU. When fragments of Vivian's past begin to surface an abusive relationship, hidden trauma, and a life she has spent years outrunning, the BAU realises she may not just be solving cases... She may also be running from one. And eventually, even the best profilers in the world must ask: What happens when the person studying broken minds is the one most fractured of all?

A series of unsolved murders in Rusk County, Texas, has Sheriff Jules Knox at her wit's end as the clues seem to point in different, confusing directions. So, despite her dislike of bureaucrats, she contacts the FBI for help. The case file ends up in SSA Hotchner's desk and after a brief look, he decides that the BAU would consult and keep an eye on it while they work on more urgent cases. Until there is a shift in the case, and the bodies start dropping in a faster rate. Sheriff Knox communicates with Agent Hotchner interrupting him from other cases. He doesn't like her attitude, but decides that it is time for the BAU to fly down to Rusk, Texas. Will the two be able to work alongside each other?
