Neil Baggio

Neil Baggio thought he was done with Bureau, done with Cappelano, and finally accepted he may never close the case of his mentor turned famed killer. After a rash of killings too close to be considered copycats, too detailed to be someone else, the Bureau calls Neil back in. Cappelano, the Veritas Killer, looks to Neil as unfinished business, a student still in need of his teaching and will do everything in his power to finish his lesson. Neil must overcome the demons that come with watching a killer go free, taking lives, and doing it on your watch.

Neil Baggio, fresh off ending the Cappelano case, is called in the middle of the night from his high school. The headmaster, formerly his teacher, asks Neil to come help investigate a student’s mysterious death. What looks to be a suicide will have Neil chasing down the Church, causing scene after scene and flying to Europe to chase one last lead that will live up to the Baggio name.

Sitting in FCI Milan, the federal prison for an interview that will change his life and make it hard to focus on this new case. The disappearance of a missing girl, an activist protesting Gaines chemical. Neil will soon find out the head of Gaines is more involved than first anticipated. Neil Baggio sits down for a conversation long overdue, with an inmate at FCI Milan. Neil will find out the interview, along with this new case, are tied together beyond him. This case will have Neil sending his team to international waters while he stays home to work the case and the interview. 

Neil Baggio will go from enjoying the sunsets in Santa Fe to chasing down the trail of international drug ring set on releasing a new drug to the world. Neil, reluctant at first, is forced to get involved when Maria trusts the wrong people. Traveling across the US and the globe, Neil will have to find a new path, new routine, and a new way to survive each day.
