      About the Author

      Introduction:

      He placed the box on my table, and I looked up to see the big shot himself head of major crime standing there looking at me.

      The box?

      The thing is Lance and I had a thing which never went anywhere due to his arrogance and him wanting the position that he has right now meaning he was my boss and that meant he gave me assignments that degraded my degree and my intelligence to prove a point.

      Lance: You’ve been nagging me that you want a case worth your time. Well, here is a case.

      I looked at him, not wanting to show interest on my face but couldn’t hide it as I dug in the box and my face dropped.

      Mr M?, are you fuckinh with me?

      Lance: Now why would I do that?

      " You want me to help profile a mystery man? A man that no man has seen but figures of him? A man who kills, steals, and has no moral compassion? A man that every single profiler in the world wants to land their hands on and no one... I mean, no one has ever got to see the man nor even verify if the man is actually a man.

      Lance: You wrote about him in your finals and got 100%, so I am guessing you will now.

      But...

      Lance: You asked to be part of major crimes Kamari and now am giving you the job, and you saying you can’t handle it?

      I opened my mouth and said nothing and then opened it again and said nothing.

      Thanks,

      Lance: Cool, I will have all the other 10 boxes sent to you.

      Ten?

      Lance: I only picked up the lightest of them all. He turned and said nothing, and I sat there looking at the box with my heart beating fast. I, Kamari Smith, am going to be a major crime profiler. I grinned and sent mom a text open a bottle of wine today mom, you won’t believe it I grinned and took the box closer smiling as I took papers out and absorbing every little thing that I find useful.

      0ne

      Kamari

      Mom: You a little late.

      well once I tell you my good news then you will understand

      I looked at mom and dad sitting together on their love seat.

      Dad: well?

      I have a new case

      Mom: Okay, this seems big.

      yes, it’s a major crime case

      They both looked at me.

      Remember when I was doing my degree and that bad boy/girl came into the world and shook things up?

      Dad: Mr M?

      the one and only

      Mom: What about him?

      his my case

      They both looked at me quiet and said nothing.

      Mom: That a major case love.

      I know and I’ll need your help

      Now here is a thing about my mom and dad. They white and am black. They adopted me from Kenya when I was 3 days old and kept the only thing that my mother gave me. My name which means moon. Now here I am a 30 year old that lives in her parents pool house and about to have a career take off as long as I figure out Mr M.

      Mom: Am happy to help, I’ll have my office send all the crimes we have on him that we want to prosecute.

      thanks mom, I knew having a lawyer as a mom has it perks

      She smiled while dad grabbed wine and poured.

      Dad: to the smartest girl on earth.

      We giggled and drank.

      Dad: remember what I always tell you? Breathe every now and then. It’s helps concentrate

      Trust my dad who is a doctor to say that and I smiled.

      " Am not gonna
