Vimes was haring off to collect a search party to find his wife, and Ray had taken over the IPD office. More or less. There were already people gone off to check the generator and whatever else was down there, and reports of missing people had begun coming in, which was exactly what he and Vimes had been afraid of (or hoping for, he wasn't quite ( Read more... )
