Publisher’s description
Detective Silbert interrogates Bobby at police headquarters about his involvement in the recent alley murders. Bobby makes his one phone call to Dr. Sarah Frost and later she and Sam discuss his options. Meanwhile, Spawn “feels” the latest victim’s death and vows to catch the killer of his people. Later, Sam finds Bobby almost dead near Sarah’s clinic. He breaks into the clinic to get help and finds a shrine of sorts from the killer relating to his victims.
