I've got to fix this bloody mess, don't I? [a sigh]
To go home and fix another bloody mess. Maybe this time I'll actually not screw it up. Or not let anyone else do it either.
The sad thing is I feel like it's closer to home... of course it is because everything is close to home it's like sardines in a can, which is why Miller can't see it because she folds like a wet paper towel. She's an officer of the law. People are not your friends at work. They are suspects or they are victims or... [he waves a hand] coworkers... but she can't see it and won't see it and whoever killed that boy knew that bloody town well enough to slip out of sight like a rat in the sewers.
And it's going to hurt her. Christ it will sting. But maybe she'll get the armor she needs to actually do her bloody job and not want to bake it puddings or whatever.
