In this story we meet FBI Behavioral Analysis Unit Agent Remmington Montague on the case, hunting a serial killer known as the Hudson Murderer.

When one of the school's security guards learns too much, she calls the Waldron police, and Detective Elena Petrakis leads the investigation.

Backing her -- as in Recycle -- are Chief Owen Neland, Senior Detective Don Burris, Lt. Ike Omari, and Sgts. Jae Ryu and Rob Perez, who offer advice and support.

Meeting your man and getting him - then it's happily ever after, right?
