Concept: Sarah was born Sarah Gregs. Her mother was a waitress in a high end hotel, her father was a patron of the hotel passing through on a business trip. They met and spent three nights together and then he was gone. His name appeared no where on the birth certificate or any other documentation that she kept. As her mother's pregnancy moved forward, and became more apparent, she was fired. It was still in a time when no one dreamed of sueing for wrongful dismissal. She got a job at another place, but the pay was considerably lower. After Sarah was born, the cost of the medical bills depleted Dana's saving and so they moved again, to a rundown apartment in the wrong part of the city. Her mother soon after began hanging out with her friends after work, leaving Sarah longer and longer with the elderly woman who lived down the hall. One day, not long after Sarah's third birthday, Dana never came back to get her. The woman, too old to take care of a child full time, called protective services and they took her into custody. Sarah had no other known family and so for the next 15 years she bounced from foster home to foster home. Never staying longer than a few months in each, with the exception of one place that she spent a year when she was 12. It was with a cop and his wife, both of them were deeply kind to her and she it was then that she decided she wanted to go into law enforcment. Unfortunately he was transfered to another city, around the time her mother re-emerged, still high but demanding a that Sarah stay in the city. After that she never forgave her mother, who never tried to see her after she got her way and her daughter stayed at the city.
One of the things that kept her going through those years of home to home was her puzzles. She'd found a logic puzzle at one of the homes when she was younger and she just latched onto it, she found a rubic cube at another house, a mystery novel, a detective novel and she was hooked on puzzles. Detail was also a strength. One learns to quickly take in their surrounding when they are moved so often. She could tell a lot about two people after being in their home less then 10 minutes.
At 18 she applied for the LAPD and got in. She trained extremely hard and worked her but off. After her rookie year she was moved to homicide and worked there for two years before becoming a junior dectective. She continued to work there another two years until a particularily gruesome murder of a child whose murdered was never caught happened. She asked for a transfer and was moved to narcotics where she did undercover work for four year, while also moving up to detective. At the end of the four years her mother finally passed away and it was then that she asked for a transfer. It wasn't like she had seen her mother since but it was as if she was tied to the city until she did. She transferred to Norfolk and has been working there since. She bought a house and even owns a dog, though she has someone who comes and dog sits during the week, because she might forget to feed it if they didn't.
