Plot summary

Synchronicity, which Amy is currently teaching in one of her classes, seems to be pervading her and Travis' lives. Nearing the end of the process, Amy has agreed to take over as Chair of the search committee for Elmstead College's new Dean of Students, she being up front to President Rivers that her friend, Dr. Tabby Felton, is one of the candidates. Tabby herself finds that she is torn in that her boyfriend, Elmstead's IT department head Joe Gearson, has just accepted a job at Oxford and has asked her to move with him to England, she however still going through with her application for the Dean's position while she decides what to do if and when she is offered the position. Concurrently, Travis has headed back to Chicago to testify in the serial murder case of Jeffrey Lewandowski aka the Wolfman, it the last case Travis led for the Chicago PD. While his testimony goes well, what doesn't go as well is Lewandowski's custody, he who is able to escape, he, in the process, leaving behind a threat of retaliation, that threat supposedly directed at Travis. As such, a close call back in Garrison that almost takes Travis' life - a home explosion as Travis is walking by - cannot be discounted as being that payback by Lewandowski. Travis, with Amy by his side, and Travis' new partner, Detective Maria Valdez, have to investigate the non-Lewandowski aspects of the case in learning about the homeowners, married couple Mel and Rita Goff, who were not home at the time, what caused the explosion, and why one of the Goffs' neighbors, retired lawyer Bill Breyer, who coincidentally or not so coincidentally used to work at the same law firm as Lewandowski's defense attorney, seems so interested in the Goffs and their house. Lewandowski potentially being involved brings FBI Agent Kate Coulson to Garrison, she who worked on the case back in Chicago with Travis. While Amy is happy to see Kate involved if only for Travis' safety and protection, she may not be as comfortable in how Kate was unofficially involved in the case in her more official role associated to Travis at the time, that of Mrs. Travis Burke.
