"There are plenty of good reasons for fighting, but no good reason ever to hate without reservation, to imagine that God Almighty Himself hates with you, too. Where's evil? It's that large part of every man that wants to hate without limit, that wants to hate with God on its side. It's that part of every man that finds all lands of ugliness so attractive." (Kurt Vonnegut)

Chapter 1
The tires of the black SUV were screeching on the asphalt as Special Agent Aaron Hotchner took the turn by the traffic lamps. The cars in front of him hurriedly pulled out of his way as he pushed the gas even harder… and Reid next to him held the handrail even tighter.
They didn't have even a second to waste…
They didn't have time for any hesitation…
They had to get that son of a bitch… and they had to save her.
Hardly had he stopped the car in front of the UnSub's house, when he jumped out of it closely followed by Reid. He faintly heard the other SUV pull up behind him and he heard dogs barking. But it all faded into the background. His mind was somewhere else.
He knew that it was wrong. He knew that he should pay attention to the SWAT team as they took up their position around the house ready to attack… He knew that he should tell Reid to follow him and that he should tell his other two agents to go to the other side of the house… But they all knew what they had to do.
He couldn't help thinking about the woman whom they came to rescue… one of their own… and only God knows if they would find her alive… If they would find her at all.
They had to catch that bastard.
He knew, too, that he shouldn't be a part of this operation… probably neither of them should… But he had to… and so did the others.
As he stood by the door with his gun drawn and ready to raid the house, he sent up a quick prayer for their friend inside the house… and for their friend who was lying in the hospital waiting for the woman to return…
