The Black Chamber: Shadow Recruit

The nightmare that describes the last 4 to 6 years nears its end. You were part of a Task Force hunting down the Yuma Killer, a serial killer. (The four to six years refers to when you joined the team.) Then two years ago, more by a fluke than the years of effort put in by you and your team mates, he was caught. That he was the deputy lead of the team was a kick in the teeth. That he had used the other members of the team to check out other potential victims was just an extra kick. So for the last two years it's been trying to deal with guilt of "why didn't I notice anything", the trial, the appeals, the press and the anger. Now you are to be one of the official witnesses at his execution. Your shrink says it will help with your sense of betrayal. So here you are at 04:00 on a July morning in the viewing room of the Yuma State Penitentiary, waiting for what exactly? Revenge? Closure? Relief? Something else?
