A Is For Agenda

Patrick Jane lived by his own agenda, that much was certain. It hadn't always been that clear though in the beginning, during the dark out of control days after his family's murder. It was only after he'd had a nervous breakdown that landed him in a mental institution did that he'd set out on his chosen path of vengeance with the ultimate goal killing Red John.

That the CBI had merely been part of that agenda a means to an end so to speak was of no consequence to Patrick. They were merely tools in his pursuit of the serial killer.

But lately that agenda was starting to change. After coming their closest yet, to the elusive killer, the consultant had come to the conclusion that it didn't matter if he died trying to stop Red John. All that mattered was that the killer be stopped somehow, someway.
