FBI AGENT IN CHARGE OF THE BSU JACK CRAWFORD
for FBI AGENT IN CHARGE OF THE BSU JACK CRAWFORD in Hannibal Lecter
Suggested by hillandar

A series following the legacy of famed serial murderer and cannibal Dr. Hannibal Lecter and the FBI through the years. This series starts before Lecter was found out, when he was "assisting" the Bureau with the psychological profiles of several serial killers. It will continue until after he is incarcerated, escaped and follows the eventual manhunt for him. This is decades of time, covering the events of "Red Dragon" "Silence Of The Lambs" and "Hannibal" all the while, filled with flashbacks to Lecter's younger years, chronicling the events of "Hannibal Rising". This series will include all the classic characters and will stay true to the events in the Hannibal Lecter Novels, changing very little while adding additional story in between existing cannon inspired by the Hannibal and Clarice TV series while adjusting each to fit more neatly with the cannon.
