Detectives Nichols and Eames must track down a killer who is surprisingly adept, and too close for comfort.

Sanitation workers discover Grace's body in a dumpster. When the prep school ID of Ceci Madison is found in a wallet and assumed to be hers, detectives Nichols and Wheeler are brought onto the case. A visit to Ceci's home tells Ceci is alive and well. Ceci bought marijuana from Grace the evening before, but couldn't make the full payment. Grace took Ceci's wallet for collateral.

M.E. Rodgers explains that Grace's killer bleached her inside and out. He didn't leave behind any forensic evidence; he knew what he was doing. By putting the body in a dumpster, there are cross-contamination issues. It was the perfect murder – untraceable.
