“What’s your thought?”<br />
“Jumper.”<br />
“You sure?”<br />
“No, but there are no signs of a struggle, his hands have<br />
no cuts or bruises. It looks like he hit face first, he’s a<br />
mess,” she said, walking with Carter towards Amelia and<br />
the Paramedics.<br />
Carter scanned the young man with the battered face<br />
and the compound fractures distorting his body.<br />
“There was nothing we could do,” the Paramedic said.<br />
“I’d say massive internal injuries.”<br />
“Thanks, did he say anything to you?” he asked, glancing<br />
up at the paramedic<br />
“No. Detective Lee did her best to keep him breathing, he<br />
wasn’t conscious when we got here.”<br />
Hands on hips, Carter leaned back and looked up at the<br />
tower and then down at the body, his mind busy working out<br />
angles and positioning.<br />
“How high?” he asked, looking at Amelia.<br />
“About fifteen metres or so.”<br />
Shaking his head and smiling, he pushed up on his<br />
knees. “I’m old school, feet?”<br />
“Close to fifty feet,” Joy Lee answered. “I’m old school<br />
too, but unlike Carter I’ve learned the maths.”
