Background
Perhaps the most insidious and evil villain to ever plague the heroes of
New England was the heartless murderess Jessica Fletcher. After two decades
as a popular writer of mysteries, for reasons still unknown, this apparently
kindly old woman began a string of murders that may never be completely
solved. Indeed, had it not been the combination of a masterful costumed
detective working in conjunction with a reputed sorcerer, she could very
well be still operating to the present day.
The origin of her powers is as mysterious as her motives. However,
investigation has at least revealed her method. Her career as an author
gave her ample opportunity to travel nationwide for "book signings". When
in a city for a "signing", in addition to her publicity appearance, she
would use a low level telepathic power to scan the crowd for anyone who felt
he or she had a grievance against someone. This person would be her patsy.
The target of that grievance would be her victim.
She would then later become invisible, acquire appropriate weaponry from the
possessions of the patsy, and kill her victim. Then she would use what has
come to be called the "Fletcher Effect" on her patsy. Using a very
powerful, but tightly focussed form of telepathic control, she would hunt
through the patsy's mind and create a plausible murder scenario in his or
her memories. Then she would go to work with her almost unrivalled forensic
skills to make sure the proper physical evidence was available.
Once the corpse was found, she completed her plan, pinning the murder on her
patsy and heading to another city, her reputation as a sleuth enhanced.

"Why then did the passengers on the plane that went down near Pittsburgh
decide to resist the hijackers and prevent them from completing their
mission? Because they knew: their relatives had told them by cell phone that
the World Trade Center had already been attacked by hijacked planes. They
were armed with final awareness of the nature of the evil they faced.
So armed, they could act. So armed, they did."
