To Bedevil A Beauty (Southern Sanctuary - Book 5) - Plot & Excerpts
It had been a hellish twenty-four hours since Berry had been shot in the High Council car park. The fact that they didn’t know anything more about who pulled the trigger or why, was not for lack of trying. Or for that matter competence. His officers had readily stepped up in the crisis. Proving themselves capable, smart and dedicated. And it wasn’t like they lacked manpower. Within five minutes of his initial call a doctor, who just happened to be in the Council building at the time of the shooting (what were the odds?) was attending to Berry in the parking lot. Two minutes later an ambulance was pulling up and a whole pack of locals, belonging to the neighbourhood watch scheme, had turned up en masse to help. Their co-ordinator, a large sturdy fellow, a few years older than Ramsey, had introduced himself as Elijah, an intense man with hard, flat eyes of a soldier. He’d advised that the neighbourhood watch members were there to help search the Nature Reserve. Ramsey hadn’t protested the help of amateurs, not with the seriousness of the situation and the fact that they desperately needed some answers. Nor did he mention how strange it was that all the volunteers had knives or swords strapped to their bodies, or that they moved like silent professional hunters.
