I didn't kill my professor. But someone did...
It's the dead of night when I regain consciousness in my psychology professor's office. I don't know what I'm doing here or why my favorite teacher is slumped over, dead at his computer with his head caved in.When I stumble over to him on shaking legs, I bury my face in my sleeve to mute the smell of death. But as I lean in to see what he was working on when he was killed, the psych profile on his screen is what makes me wretch. The assessment is about one of his students--someone he describes as mentally ill, losing control, and capable of extreme violence. I scroll to the top of the document, and when I get there my stomach freezes because the name I see is my own.
Jim Straub.
I stagger away from my professor's cold body, eyes filled with tears. He was my teacher and trying to help me. There's no way I was the one who murdered him. But if it wasn't me, who was it? And more importantly, why did the killer let me live?
