## Biography

### *Protecting Summer* (2015)

At age 25, Beth is shopping at Walmart when she is kidnapped by Ben Hurst. He wanted another woman to torture, as a way to prolong his torture of Summer Pack.

Tex is able to track the last known location of Beth's phone, which helps him tell Mozart's team where to look for the women.

### *Shelter for Elizabeth* (2016)

After the events of *Protecting Summer*, Beth moves to San Antonio, Texas. She is in a therapy group to help her deal with the trauma of being kidnapped, which is where she meets Penelope. She now has agoraphobia, which prevents her from spending much time outside of her house. Beth works online as a customer service agent, but often stays up all hours of the night hacking into major corporations' websites and stopping crimes on the dark web.

One day while sitting with Penelope and Sledge, Pen asks Beth about her hacking skills. Pen texts someone, and a few minutes later, Beth's computer is hacked. She works to fight off the intruder but can't protect herself. Penelope had texted Tex, who used his hacking attempt on Beth's computer as an interview, of sorts. He offers Beth a job for him, doing research and finding information that no one else can find.
