Because he isn't just one cop trying to catch a killer, he's the man who's got all the pieces to the puzzle....

I mean, you never think of that sort of thing happening in Edinburgh, do you...?' 'That sort of thing' is the brutal abduction and murder of two young girls. And now a third is missing, presumably gone to the same sad end.
