Excerpt from Murder Most Foul-a detective/mystery

Setting: F.B.I. Agent Walker Harmon, talks with the coroner concerning the victims.

Harmon, in a sort-of rosy haze, snapped out of it in another block and drove to the coroner who had performed the victims’ autopsies.

Inside, he greeted his fellow professional with a smile. “Thanks for speaking with me, Doctor Bruce.”

“Please come in.” Bruce removed his plastic gloves and blood- splattered apron, and washed his hands at the nearby sink while nodding Harmon onto a stool.

Seated, Harmon asked, “What was the official cause of death?”

“The worst case of butchery I’ve seen since the military,” the veteran doctor replied.

“I’ve worked with the Bureau for eleven years, and I’ve witnessed the worst mayhem a man can see. But I must understand the breed of person I’m up against.” Harmon explained.

Shaking his head, the doctor described the autopsy: “The female victim had two, .22 caliber gunshot wounds to the head. The male victim was shot six times with the same weapon in the torso area, but the actual cause of death was loss of blood due to castration.”

“Someone really wanted that boy to suffer. Anything peculiar about the conditions of the bodies?” Harmon asked.
