Chapter 1 How it All Began
Steve Sloan went around the passenger side of the truck to open his partner Cheryl Bank's door.
"Thanks Steve," Cheryl said with a smile.
"Your welcome now let's go see what we got. Hey Amanda whatcha got?
"Hey Steve, Cheryl twenty-eight-year-old male shot in the head. Looks like a suicide but something just doesn't feel right about it."
"Well once your done with your exam we will get started," Cheryl said.
"I just finished I'd say he died about 7:00 this morning so he has been dead for about seven hours."
"Ok thanks Amanda," Steve replied as he and Cheryl began to process and collect the evidence. They worked silently side by side until the ringing of Cheryl's cell phone interrupted them. She stood up and walked away to take the call.
"Hey Steve, that was Captain Newman he needs me back at the station the suspect from that robbery I worked has been caught and is being brought in."
"Ok Cheryl see you back at the station.
"Ok and Steve?"
"Yah?"
"Be careful ok?"
"Ok Cheryl I will and do you realize that you're starting to sound like my dad?" Cheryl just smiled and headed for the door. Amanda had left to go and do the autopsy leaving Steve to continue processing the evidence. All of a sudden Steve heard a loud boom and smelled smoke then his world went black.
