The Prey Page #5

Synopsis: Bank-robber Franck Adrien is serving a prison sentence after robbing a national bank. Before he was caught he managed to hide the money but now it's not just the police who are looking for the money. His cell-mate is Jean-Louis Maurel, an alleged rapist/child molester who claims his innocence. When the court finds Maurel not guilty, Maurel promises to look after Franck's family when he gets out. But one day, a man called Manuel Carrega tells Franck that Maurel is a suspected serial killer and that Franck's family is in danger. Franck escapes from prison and police officer Claire Linné and her team take up the chase.

find Maurel.

Where are your guns?

I don't have any.

Don't take me for an idiot,

where are they?

They're there.

In the cupboard.

Go.

He always lived

in the area.

I met him 5 years ago.

I questioned him about

a girl from Dijon.

Sylvie Desme.

He'd been seen

talking to her.

I smelled a rat.

Maurel raised

too many questions.

He lied about details.

I sensed that he was

playing with me.

He was a bad one.

The girl was never found...

no body, no proof.

There were the other

disappearances.

The resemblance is striking.

It's been admitted

that it was a serial killer.

But a cop investigates facts,

not potential suspects.

You've gone ahead anyway?

Quietly. Got nowhere for a long time.

He was invisible.

No record, town hall official, liked by all.

He was never far away

when the disappearances occurred.

Finally,

a month apart.

I brought Maurel in,

but his DNA didn't match.

For the second time,

he trapped us.

His sperm sample was at the station,

Next day it'd disappeared.

I was suspected.

At the same time,

he brought a complaint against me

for harassment.

I was dismissed.

I'm not allowed

to live near him.

You're no longer

in the constabulary?

No, I lied to you.

I investigate privately.

Bugger! I was hoping

you'd be able to help me.

The little girl's 5.

She doesn't look like these girls...

Could he harm her?

She's not his normal victim type.

If he wanted to have a good time,

he wouldn't hesitate.

I've got the phone number.

An old constabulary captain's

maybe got some contacts?

Want a snort?

[Russian] - Thanks!

It's good stuff.

The paper?

You know him?

The constabulary have

found 2 more bodies.

Sylvie Desme and Karine

Garcia, reported missing.

This is a serial killer for sure!

Thanks , I'm on it.

A truck driver dropped Adrien

at Luzon, in Nivre.

You coming?

Yeah, coming.

I've come to see Bourgoin.

You got a serial killer for 'im?

Bourgoin,

Luzon Constabulary office.

I need information

on a suspect's number.

It's me.

You got something?

The line's been dead

for 48 hours.

He used it 12 times.

The last time was to

Pr-sur-Lamure.

One of my hideouts.

What else?

Several calls

to the Alpes-Maritimes region.

Where in Alpes-Maritimes?

There's an area of 40 k's

around a village.

Chasseignes.

That's maybe where he's living.

He takes a medication,

Xyrex.

He was jumpy

when he didn't get it.

Is there a pharmacy

in Chasseignes?

There are the cops everywhere.

You reported me?

No I didn't.

Where's your gun?

A gun's against regu...

Stuff your regulations.

I wouldn't need

to depend on you.

Carrega?.

How come you're here?

I was looking for Bourgoin.

He's directing the search.
