only thing they have in common is that they were all killed together.

They weren't roommates. Two were older, and from Cambridge. Cambridge--where Number One lived.

You could have one "retail level" guy being visited by a distributor and his wholesaler in this scenario.

Don't spend too much time looking at the activity at the house in Waltham to the exclusion of any other possibilities for interaction--two of the dead didn't even live there.

Perhaps your nexus is a mobbed up Russian guy, who lives in Cambridge and has a "best friend" who lives in Waltham?

Odd that he didn't go to his "best friend's" funeral...and took a six month trip to who-knows-where (though he did finally end up in Russia in March) the following January...
