Nari tried to even out the sugar rush from the latte with a cheese-and-bacon protein roll baked by Pippa. It was shocking how many people wanted Angus and the rest of their team dead. She took a deep breath and opened her file folder to see what had been compiled on the serial killer. She whistled. “Wow. Brigid really hacked everybody this time, didn’t she?”

Wolfe nodded. “Yeah, we all called in any favor we could find. The newest victim is on the second page.”

Nari turned to see a brunette who looked defenseless in death, and tears pricked the backs of her eyes. The poor woman. Nari had never gone to the bakery, but she’d enjoyed the goodies Angus had brought to the office on more than one occasion.

Angus read the papers without saying a word, but tension radiated from his hard body. She wanted to reach out to him and offer some kind of comfort, but they weren’t exactly getting along just then.

Angus flipped the page and stared at the picture. “She didn’t stand a chance.”

Nari studied the heartbreaking picture. “He’s being more subtle, finding a baker. Pippa doesn’t work as a baker, and most folks outside our team don’t even know she exists. So, how does the killer?”

Angus nodded. “I was thinking the same thing. How does the killer know Pippa bakes?”

Nari shook her head. “Not many people are close enough to any of us to know that.” Pippa wasn’t even on the team, although she lived with Malcolm and was part of the little family they’d all formed. Nari looked up. Angus had been the best profiler in the FBI before he’d left the agency. “What’s this guy’s next move? I mean, who?”

Angus’s jaw was hard as he flipped through the records. “Let’s work through it with the notes we’ve found. Normally, if I had to guess right now, I’d say he’d want to go in opposite order from these kills, mainly because you and I are spending so much time together. He’d save you for last. Except that’s not what he’s done. He’s tried to take you already.”

Nari shivered. “Why?”

“I don’t know. There’s something we’re missing.” Angus looked at Wolfe. “When you report back, let Malcolm and Pippa know that, if this guy hadn’t tried for Nari, I’d think Pippa would be the first target.” He took a drink of his latte. “Although, the guy might take any opportunity, so everyone needs to be alert and guarded.”

“What about the men?” Nari asked quietly. “Maybe he’s going after the entire team.”
