Enclosed for your approval is the Final White draft of Detective Dialogue at one of the ge-neric crime scenes. I’ve written the details so that this scene is not necessarily time-specific. That seemed to be the inference from your last memo. I know that you are still waiting to purchase rights to the killer’s diaries and that is the material we need, obviously, to construct some kind of chronological story.

There is, however, some cut-away material as you’ll notice: the reference to Sgt. Jauntley at another location where a different homicide has occurred. You’ll recall that Jauntley is the detective with the sick interest in victims of extremely violent serial killers. He loves to gaze at the gruesome details and here one of the detectives refers to a telephone call in which a friend of his, a fellow investigator, just informs him that Jauntley has to be removed from the house because the killing is so horrific that even Jauntley cannot endure it without reach-ing the point of nausea and vomiting.
