The story so far
Everything you need before watchingThe tip line hits ninety suspects an hour, the switchboard is jammed, and Monday is still a school day. The only person who saw him unmasked has skipped town. Four scenes do not match and fingerprints are thin, yet they still have to say a break is coming—while privately fighting Vallejo for the files.
