A wicked storm fell out of an evil night sky . Nick Teffinger, the 34-year-old head of Denver’s homicide unit, was in the thick of it with the Tundra’s wipers swishing back and forth to a demonic beat . From the radio Mick was screaming that he couldn’t get no satisfaction and Teffinger was screaming right along with him.

Traffic was minimal.
A woman appeared up ahead at the side of the road, hunched against the weather. Her thumb came out; she was trying to get a ride. Teffinger edged over and powered down the passenger window.
The woman was in her early thirties with dark exotic features. Heavy drenched clothes clung to her body.
Her chest was ample.
She wore no bra.
Her face was serious .
Teffinger unlocked the door and said, “Get in.”
She did.
“Thanks, mister.”
Her voice was timid and laced with stress.
“Where you going?”
“I don’t know.”
“Do you need a ride home?”
“Sure if you’re going to Seattle .”
Her name was Atasha and her story was simple. She and her boyfriend were passing through Colorado on their way from New York to Seattle. Two hours ago they had a fight, not one of those normal ones, a mean one where things got said . He dragged her out of the car and told her to have nice life. Then he was gone. To his credit, it wasn’t raining that badly out at the time.
Now it was.
She had less than $30 in her purse.
She had no
