A serial killer at large in California hits during blackouts. He hates being watched to the extent that he turns photographs away, but he wants his victims' children to watch, or at least hear what he's doing. Garcia determines that he has killed before -- in every State, or at least the continental ones -- and that he stopped years ago, only to come back again now. A local detective turns out to be the first victim he left alive after killing his parents 26 years ago.
