Summary
Jim from the precinct swears his daddy has boxes of unofficial case files at home - long-missing girls, bad scenes, things that never fit right on paper, things that sound a little too much like Dora Lange.
Naturally, Rust Cohle wants a look. He doesn’t account for the house those files live in, or for Christiana Dufrene, Jim's mute younger sister the parish has turned into a living ghost story.
Rated for canon-related material.

Summary
Presque Vu
(n.) almost remembered
- the feeling of being on the brink of a realization but never quite having a breakthrough.His fingers curled and uncurled around the air thoughtlessly, his brow twitching with a sticky, feverish trepidation that had nothing to do with Gavin Reed's hostility and everything to do with the dark, heavy circles under the girl's mascara smeared eyes and sickly pale skin. His mouth had gone frighteningly dry, tongue thick and clumsy, pressed up against the back of his perfect teeth as an unfamiliar feeling prickled at the base of his spine.
She took a sip of her stale coffee and continued to avoid his gaze, aggressively evasive, and Connor had the inexplicable, nauseating realization that the feeling gnawing at the back of his head was recognition.
Which was strange, because Connor had never seen her before.
