After the relatively useless status meeting Dr. Mark Sheffield again reviewed everything they knew about Green and everything that he remembered about a brilliant undergraduate biology student that he taught many years ago. The kid was absurdly smart; even though he was only a teenager at the time, he made the entire staff of the university look like bumbling fools in comparison. After only a couple of semesters he dropped out. Jeff Black, his name was, according to old school records that Sheffield recovered. As anyone with a science background knew, black indicated a total absence of color. The man that they now sought always chose a color as his last name. Both Green and Black were small, slim men. Green appeared to be about forty years old, which is about how old Black would now be.
Was the Jerry Green they sought actually the grown-up Jeff Black, or was this all coincidence? He knew that he should tell Landers about his suspicions, but he wouldn't. Not until he was sure. Whitmore would eat him alive if he diverted the investigation onto some sort of wild goose chase.
