The victim’s name is Hannah Bloom. She was twenty-five years old when she was strangled and dumped in the Hudson River. It doesn’t appear that she was raped or tortured, but she was drugged with the date rape drug and so that’s how her killer must have subdued her. Hannah was also a social worker. She didn’t seem to have problems with anyone on the job and so the FBI believed she could have been targeted because of her father. Her father was Detective Harry Bloom in Sex Crimes. He’s made plenty of enemies over the years and the team had to consider the possibility of being a vendetta against her father.
There was a man that loitered around her apartment building. He asked out Hannah several times and in truth, he creeped her out. Hannah had never identified this man, but there was security footage from her apartment building and the agents showed the image of this man to her father. Detective Bloom knew who he was right away. He said the man was Lyle Manning and that he had been investigating him for violent rapes some months ago. Lyle had skated charges back then only he doesn’t seem like he ever forgot the detective’s part. He found out the man had a daughter and then creepily stalked her for weeks.
Maggie and OA brought him for questioning. They grilled him on what he was really doing by hanging out around Hannah’s apartment building and he said he was just being friendly. He was a creep alright, but there was no evidence he killed Hannah and what the FBI later found proved he was innocent. The team had run a search on the killer’s M.O and it came back with four other hits. Their killer has been targeting women in their late twenties to early thirties for a while now. He drugs them, ties them up, and later kills them with those same ties. The team quickly realized they were on the hunt for a serial killer and so they changed tactics.
They brought in a profiler. Sloan Wallace was one of the best in the game and she told them that their killer has a fast turnover. He was probably stalking his next victim as they were looking for him. Their killer was also smart because he realized that dumping these women over various jurisdictions meant no one was connecting them before now and so the team had to find his pattern. They took a look at all the victims and they saw that he was working his way down the Hunsdon River. He was firmly in the city now and so they were going to catch him they had to study his mistakes.
The killer might have perfected things by the time he got to Hannah, but his first victim must have come with mistakes. Maggie and OA went up to Albany where they talked to people that knew Jenny Lewis and they found out she abruptly ended a relationship. She had met someone in rehab and they had to end it because the program demanded that they be single for a year. So Maggie and OA found out who this mystery man was. His name was Andrew Cameron and he was known to the FBI because he was a famous kidnap victim. He was kidnaped by a pedophile when he was a kid and was abused for years before he escaped.

Since then, Andrew has spent several years in and out of rehab. He met Jenny and they got too close too fast. Andrew must have hated it when she ended things. He sent her letters begging for her to take him back and, when she didn’t reply, he decided to kill her. Abused kids often turn into abusers as a way of getting back a sense of control. Adam was in the same city in each location a woman was murdered and so he was their best suspect. But Andrew’s case was known everywhere. People are quite protective of him for all that he’s been through and his mother for one was frantic. She was afraid of losing her son again and she didn’t realize that all of Andrew’s supposed victims had matched her description.
The victims were all gingers. They shared the same facial features and they all looked like his mother. Wallace probably had a field day with his profile. She gave her profile to Maggie and OA and the two agents interrogated Andrew. They asked him about the night Jenny died. He admitted to begging her to take him back and then said he didn’t remember the rest. Andrew had been drinking. He’s an alcoholic and so he doesn’t exactly stop at one drink. He tends to drink until his blacks out. Andrew was also the nervous type and he had a panic attack while he was in custody. And so the agents got a doctor to check him out, then once he was he cleared, they later went back in and questioned why he was killing women that look like his mother.
They asked him if he was angry at his mother. They pretended to sympathize with him because his mother should have protected him and she failed at her job. She wasn’t there to stop his abuser. Maggie and OA tried to get Andrew to confess to the murders, but he didn’t, and he lawyered before they could get anything else out of him. The lawyer was making sure he was going to be talking anytime soon and that posed a problem for the agents. They later learned that another woman disappeared. This woman disappeared from a bar and he bartender remembers her. He said that she was dizzy and she only had one drink. He thought someone might have drugged her.
The bartender tried to help. Only she disappeared when he wasn’t looking and so he had no idea where she went or if she’s okay, but he did know her name. She had opened a tab she never closed and so the bartender knows her name is Grace Lennon. Grace Lennon has been missing for several hours. Her parents were out of town. They only lived in the city for six months out of the year and that meant their apartment was empty. The apartment was close to the bar so the agents checked it out and they found Grace. Grace had said she escaped the killer and she was hiding because she was scared.
Maggie and OA had shown Andrew’s picture to Grace and she said he wasn’t the guy. She had fought with the killer who tried to push her into a car and so she had seen his face. She also knew it wasn’t Andrew. The agents went back to the drawing board and they found someone who matches Andrew’s profile – his brother Jordan. Jordan was ignored when his mother focused all her energy on Andrew and so he hated his mother. He blames her for the lack of love he grew up with. He also must have blamed his brother as well because he snapped and killed a woman every time he checked up on his brother at a rehab.
If it hadn’t been for Grace, Jordan would have gotten away with it. Jordan went on the run once he saw they had arrested his brother and so the agents just missed him by a few seconds. They didn’t know where he ran off but they had Andrew and Andrew said his mom used to take them to the river to watch the boats when they were small. This was before he was kidnaped. It was one the few good memories they had of that time and Andrew was right that his brother would go back to the river. Local police spotted him and they chased him into a warehouse. The FBI was then called and they went in after Jordan.
They were doing their best to talk him down, but then Harry Bloom showed up. The detective was grieving his daughter and he wanted to know why his child. He created such a ruckus that Jordan snapped and the FBI was forced to kill him just to stop him.
But Kristen was caught in the crossfire and she was shot.
