- Clarice is called back into the field when two bodies show up only several feet apart with similar wounds that appear to be the work of an unknown serial killer on the loose.
- FBI agent Clarice Starling has been held out of the field for more than a year since she previously captured and then killed serial killer Buffalo Bill whilst he was holding the FBI Chief Ruth Martin's own daughter hostage intended to be his next skinned alive victim until Clarice put an end to Buffalo Bill's murderous and torturous rampage. Chief Ruth Martin insists against the Psychiatrist's reservations to allow FBI agent Clarice Starling to go back out into the field investigation to solve the most recent murders of three (3) women who appear to be murdered by a new serial killer. Clarice who would prefer to stay in her preferred field as a Behavioral Analyst is pushed by Chief Ruth Martin to go right back into the middle of this new investigation based on her adept ability to understand how these serial killers think and act. Unfortunately for Clarice's superiors they soon realize that Clarice's grandmothers words of advice are more meaningful to her than the instructions of her superiors.—Ed Shullivan
- After dodging critical questions for a year in mandatory therapy, which may see her suspended in the FBI, behavioral analyst Clarice Starling is urgently called to Washington D.C. by Justice minister Ruth Martin, whose daughter Catherine she saved from Hannibal-inspired serial killer Buffalo Bill. She's assigned as field profiler to the Violent Criminal Apprehension Program (ViCAP, under conventional lawyer-agent Paul Krendler, who openly calls her famous results flukes, trusting only traditional forensic techs, like Shaan Tripathi and veteran Murray Clarke . He assigns as her watchdog ex-military sharpshooter Quatico recruit Tomas Esquivel, who shows an open mind and diplomatic skills between those two. She's not inclined to rule two similar cases at close distance a serial killing, rather suspects a staged cover-up, and ends up going public with these doubts despite direct orders. An attack on her reporter housemate Ardelia Mapp confirms this, Esquivel saves their skins.—KGF Vissers
