Laying Low is the fourteenth case overall of Eurrera, also known as the second case of the third district, Fable Peaks.
Plot
While taking the ex-deputy mayor's sister, Gianna Sing, home, she started screaming at Parker and started to run off. After minutes of looking for her, they finally find her, but in a horrifying manner, poorly mutilated and nailed in a tree, an ax stuck in her head. Coroner Milton determined that the murder weapon was in fact the fire ax.
In the first chapter, the team suspected beat cop Nellie Sharp as she was the one that monitored the victim's ankle bracelet, new deputy mayor Anthony Blood-Hart after finding a newspaper about him at the crime scene, and tattoo artist Alexander Fang after finding his tattoo sleeve at a parlor the victim frequently visited. They also determined by a nail gun with hairs and signs of checking for a pulse on the victim's body that the killer owns a husky and knows first aid training. At the end of the first chapter, Parker gets a message about a community college the victim used to attend.
In the second chapter, they enter the community college the victim used to attend when they find the victim's old professor, Nino Trudeau, who wasn't aware of the murder. They also meet a student who used to be the victim's apprentice, foreign student Riley Montague. They also discover an open fire ax case with a certain smudge on the glass, resulting in Darwin discovering that the killer eats chocolate chip cookies. However, while reviewing, they hear news that the deputy mayor is closing the classroom.
In the third chapter, they stop Anthony from closing the classroom, saying that the professor is corrupt and will only make the student's lives worse. Calling him preposterous, he escorted the deputy mayor out the classroom, leaving Parker and the Player confused and by themselves. They eventually went straight to business and arrested professor Nino Trudeau for the murder.
He explained that Sing was a former student of Trudeau. He had some affairs with her during her year, taking advantage of her while she was hazed by a sorority. When graduating, she confronted him and said that she'll curse him after she moves away. After discovering that she’s being hunted and back in Fable Peaks, he took matters into her own hands. When told about the nails, he confessed that he only used the ax to kill her. Nails weren’t involved.
Trudeau was sentenced to 50 years in prison.
