Emma waited two years for a compatible heart. She went back to her job as a music teacher. One Sunday morning, she was having coffee with Suzy, her neighbor, across the hall. They were talking about the five killings in the area. When Suzy mentioned that the victims were strangled with violin string, Emma felt a tingling sensation.
“Is it you?” Suzy asked joking. “You play the violin and go after midnight on Fridays.”
“Suzy, what in the world? You think I sleep walk? I never go out after midnight.”
Doctors never informed Emma she had the heart of a killer.
