From the little bit I read just now, it looks like the locals take the lead with support from FBI -- most times. Which kind of makes sense, since the locals would know their area better, maybe? I'm fuzzy on what, if anything, would tip the scales and make the FBI take the lead on an investigation. Also, it looks like the FBI is much taken up with anti-terrorist activities nowadays, taking priority over lowly serial killers.

Since I've got you here, maybe you could tell me a bit about the division of duties between MI5 and MI6? (I know you're busy with the other writing thing so feel free to ignore if you are pressed for time.)

Just got back from a shoppiong trip, actually, but in the mega-wait at the bank (their computers were down. Again. sigh) I managed to sort this bit of the plot in my head - think. (o:

MI5 = homeland security and MI6 = foreign-based threats. ie; MI5 is watching me (and my 60 million compatriots); MI6 is watching 'them' - the other 5 billion or so Earth inhabitants. ::G::

Thanks! That explains nicely.

And nice that you could put your wait-time to good use by working out plotlines!
