As he works, he also scours his memory for who and why, making sure that his thoughts and conclusions are fully recorded for the investigation he hopes will come.

However, much more is at stake here than a conspiracy against one unfortunate officer. MUST HATRED BE FOREVER? IS A LIFE OF HEALING POSSIBLE?
