The Protest
Emma’s POV
As I came to the driveway in the morning, I found protesters everywhere with their posters, “We want a secured Winster county,” “Catch the murderer,” do your work,” “Justice for Albert” among others.
I knew that we are in dire situation. I quickly parked an rushed to the station.
Vin’s POV
I practically stayed up the whole night going through various CCTV footages, I finally got a clue… the car with Chris in it, but the driver was blurred. I quickly went through other footages but it seems they intentionally evaded all CCTV cameras.
“Good morning man, any progress?” I was woken up by Emma’s husky greeting…
Sheriff Morgan’s POV
I didn’t sleep yesterday night, the mayor and the governor took turns in blasting me. This morning, I saw protesters, we will definitely do the press conference to reassure the public of their safety. On getting to the office I saw that Emma and Vin are already there.

KATE The Press Conference
Sheriff Morgan’s POV Back at the investigation room, we discussed at length on how to control the situation and also give hope to the citizens of Winster county. “Agent Tom, care to join us for the conference?” I asked, I was looking for increased credibility before the media and the general public Agent Tom’s POV “I wouldn’t mind” I said in response, “the best way to make the perpetrators come out of their shell is to look strong and unbiased” I continued.

KATE Freaking awesome detective
Vin’s POV I was standing behind Emma the whole time, all of a sudden I saw that he was uneasy, then I followed the direction of his eye, I saw what going on, I quickly pushed the sheriff out of the bullet direction as everyone ducked, the bullet hit and penetrated the wall. The next bullet got the sheriff. Meanwhile, the man was shot, we quickly rushed towards that direction in hot pursuit of the criminal. Emma’s POV “That’s Tanner the culprit of Max’s murder!” Tanner’s POV Even though, the boss told me to stay underground for some time, I won’t want to miss this opportunity to kill old Morgan. He is my mortal enemy: he killed my brother I want to get back at him at all cost, I don’t know how that blonde detective noticed me but he has been intently looking at me as though he recognized me.

KATE Nobody is going home today
Agent Tom’s POV I quickly surveyed the scene, I got clues from the organizer to the security, they need to be brought in for questioning. I found that the tire belongs to an SUV. “How come that Tanner guy looked familiar?” I kept asking myself. I must carefully follow this lead to gain the upper hand in this case because so far it seems to be going nowhere. Tanner’s POV Thankfully, the bullet just grazed my shoulder, so I had to tie a bandage around it. “Damn! This stuff hurts” I muttered to myself. At least I have gotten my revenge on old Morgan. The image of the man standing like a statue behind Morgan, “have I really seen him or is it just déjà vu?” I was brought back the beep on my burner phone. It is the boss! Smith’s POV As I saw the news this evening, I was really pissed off with Tanner, he is all brawn but no common sense. I have to address this case. “I want to see your foolish arse, where the hell are you?...”

KATE Change
Emma’s POV Through the night we kept looking for possible clues by replaying the various clips on hand and the CCTV footages. Agent Tom just went to sleep immediately, “good night guys and don’t breakdown” he said and quickly dozed off in the nearby cushion. We all agreed with him because technically, there is nothing much we can achieve in such state. We all went to bed. I was woken up by my phone’s beep around 5:15 am, it was Stanley. “Good morning bro” I said in response to his greeting, he wanted to catch up on the recent development. After a lengthy conversation, he told me of his intentions to visit Kate today. “Guys wake up! We should visit the sheriff!” I shouted to wake the sleepyheads: Vin and Kayla. Agent Tom was already awake. We all hope for the best, not just for Morgan but for all Winster county to be safe. Vin’s POV When we got the hospital, we quickly raced to the ICU, old Morgan was just lying helpless
KATE Charles?
Stanley’s POV This is my first meeting with Kate and I believe I will get substantial information or a probable evidence of her innocence to hasten her release from arrest. Moreover, Melissa has contacted me of her intentions to withdraw the complaint filed against her. Seated opposite her, I was impressed with her at first sight, she is really cool I thought. “Good morning Miss Kate,” I greeted her, “my name is Stanley Stewart…” Kate’s POV The man seated opposite me is like a mirror image of detective Emma. For some reasons I feel like telling him everything. I have been preparing myself mentally for some days now. “My name is Kate Zainab Omar” I said looking directly at his expression. He was just firm and smiled a bit. “How did you meet Albert, miss Kate?” he asked. This is my love story with Albert. “It was the summer of 2017, I was working at the Smith’s bar, I was ordered to serve him, after serving him; h
KATE Smith's Favorite
Stanley’s POV “Do you know that he is the suspect in Albert’s murder case?” Kate’s POV “What!” I thought they said something about one Tanner...” then I realized that either I have lost my mind or that I was blind. The images in my mind started to form intelligible scenarios in my mind. Maybe Melissa was right all along, my ex killed my hubby. I thought I was strong but now all my strength seemed to have dissipated, I just broke down and started crying. Stanley’s POV When Kate came to the realization that Charles and Tanner are one and same person, she couldn’t help that feeling of helplessness, she broke down in tears. I gave her my handkerchief to wipe her face, ”it is not your fault Kate” I said to lighten her mood Kate’s POV “Really? Who would believe that, I don’t even believe it myself” I said amidst tears. All of a sudden someone hugged me and when I turned it was Emma. “It is okay Kate, I believe
