OUT OF THE DARKNESS (THE PRESCOTT SERIES) - Plot & Excerpts
She gazed at her surroundings. The bed, she lay on, was small, yet large enough for two if they slept close together. She fingered the handmade quilt someone had fashioned from scrapes of every material and design imaginable. It lent a homey atmosphere to the small room. A chair and a washbasin set against the far wall. On the wall behind her, a small piece of string held a picture suspended from on a nail above the bed. She swung her feet to the floor and wiggled her toes in the braided rug lying next to the bed. The loose strings tickled her instep but the rug would be nice to put one’s feet on during the winter months. Head cocked sideways, she listened. The house sounded eerily quiet. No sounds of children playing or the enticing aroma of food filled the air. She pushed to her feet and stood. Her legs wobbled for a moment then strengthened. A bit shaky, she slowly made her way to the door and peeked out. The only part of the house she’d seen was the small space she considered her refuge.
