When the ingredients of a recipe are mixed together, and put on the hob to boil, different flavours bubble to the surface. The horror filled dish that is Samuel Little has only recently – in November of 2018, in fact – started to reveal its full range of unpleasant attacks on our senses.
The essence of what is starting to emerge may well change over the coming weeks and months; it might get stronger and even less palatable, it may turn out to be a false concoction which, with investigation, proves to still contain a bitter taste. One still unbelievably bad to those who have had the misfortune to find it on their plate, but (at least) something about which we already know.
Because, if there is even a fraction of truth in what Samuel Little is currently saying, the United States is about to know the identity of its latest, biggest ever, serial killer.
