Chapter Two: Too Many Suspects
The investigation uncovered several enemies.
Kene owed millions to a dangerous loan shark.
His cousin had threatened him over family land.
His fiancée had secretly been seeing another man.
Each suspect had motive.
Each suspect lied.
Each suspect hid something.
Meanwhile, another body appeared.
Same black feather.
Same careful execution.
Same impossible escape.
The media praised Superintendent David for working day and night.
He visited grieving families.
Comforted mothers.
Attended funerals.
Even the governor publicly commended him.
The pressure mounted as rumors spread that the killer was mocking the police.
No one noticed that David always arrived at every crime scene first.
No one questioned why the killer always seemed one step ahead.
Because who would suspect the man leading the investigation?
