The storms had finally passed, and for that, everyone was thankful. Lindsay was in her office doing what she had been doing for what felt like years—reading files. She had gone through the ones her deputies had encountered and marked them on the map that was now on the bulletin board instead of her office wall. Viktor and Annie had moved the map and marked every incident with new labels. While they did that, Cat had entered each of them into the new program she had written, hoping to predict th

    “Thank you for having her come here and do this,” Lindsay said as soon as Little Bob and Izzy had left her office. “Being able to know what could be out there, even if it isn’t everything, helps me know what to prepare my deputies for.” “I need her to be able to respond in the field if it is a special situation or if someone is injured. She can do that from here, and as she puts everything into the database, it will help both of us do our jobs,” Wren told her. “I have to get back to the base. Is there anything else I can do for you before I go?” “No, this is enough for now. I mean, really, what else can you do? You have delivered a doctor that, for some reason, decided she should also be a cop, to my office to help with everything related to the weirdness.” “She has been instructed to help you and the department with whatever is needed. If someone gets hurt while she is here, she is to take care of it. If she can help you with those headaches, let her help you with that, too. You h

    “Wren and I came up with a plan this weekend. Izzy will be here at the department going through all these boxes and putting everything in the database Cat created whenever she isn’t responding to things for his agency. She will also be a reserve deputy here, so if we get a call about weirdness, she can respond to them with the department and help fill her hours. What do you think of the idea?” Lindsay asked quietly. “I think it is a good one. My only question is, is Izzy going to put only these files into the system, or is she going to put everything in?” “Izzy is going to start with the files from the base, but everything will be entered into it eventually.” “Good, I would like to know what is running around here, especially after Saturday.” “You and me both. That was way too close for comfort. Did you write anything up about it?” “I will write it up soon. I am still trying to wrap my head around what happened and what that thing was.” “I would do it, but all I saw was ground a

    “Good morning, Cat,” she said when she walked in. She saw Little Bob and Max sitting at their desks, waiting for her. “I can tell that the two of you want to talk to me. Just let me put my stuff down in my office first. Then I will come and join you,” Lindsay told them. “Awww, the high sheriff is going to join us, lowly deputies. I feel so honored,” Max said with a big grin. Lindsay had been walking to her office, but what Max said made her stop and step back to see him. She looked at him, then at Little Bob. Little Bob lowered his coffee cup and told her, “I would slap him across the back of the head for you, but I’d have to get up to do it.” Lindsay shook her head, entered her office, and placed her things on her desk. She returned to where Little Bob and Max were sitting and sat down. As soon as she was seated, Little Bob set a cup of coffee in front of her. “You look like you need this,” he said. “I do, thank you. How is Big Bob doing? I haven’t talked to him since yesterda

    “There was an incident when I tried to tranquilize it,” Wren told her sheepishly. “We have no idea what it is or if it is dangerous. The sheriff and I will be here if you need us, but this is your operation. I want to see how you do on your own,” Wren told Izzy. “Yes, sir. Give me a minute to formulate a plan, and I will take care of it,” Izzy said with a smile. “Maybe I will have the same luck with this little thing that the sheriff has had with a few things.” “Please be careful. These things have a way of looking harmless but can be deadly,” Lindsay told her. “Oh, believe me, I know. I have watched all of the footage from Max’s dash camera. I don’t know how anyone can get into the trouble he gets into,” Izzy said with a soft giggle. “If you have watched those, you know what NOT to do,” Lindsay told her. “Oh, most definitely. Let me grab a few things, and I’ll take care of that little guy,” Izzy said. Izzy walked off the porch and to the van she had driven. She took a black ca

    Wren stood up and tucked the blanket around her before kissing her on the head. He turned and went inside to get dressed before his team arrived. Lindsay sat absent-mindedly, keeping track of where the little creature was as she thought about what had happened earlier in the day. She was thankful that things had not been worse. After a few minutes, Wren stepped back onto the porch and walked over to her. “Well, at least it didn’t go very far. I have to get something out of my car,” he said, then kissed her on the head again. He walked to his car in the driveway and opened the trunk. He pulled out a large black case and a small black bag. As he walked back onto the porch, Lindsay looked at what he was carrying and laughed. “Tell me you are not going to shoot that little thing,” she said. “It’s only a tranquilizer gun. I think I need to knock it out to make sure it doesn’t take off into the woods. It is a nice night, but I don’t want a full-scale search,” Wren told her. “If it star

    Wren woke up and rolled over. When he did, he knew Lindsay was not in bed with him. He sat up, looked at her side of the bed, and saw Crook lying on the bed where Lindsay should have been, sound asleep. Wren got up, picked up his phone, and tiptoed through the house looking for her. After not finding her, he walked to the couch and picked up the blanket on the back of it before going out onto the front porch, where he found her sitting in her usual spot. “How long have you been out here?” he asked as he sat beside her and placed the blanket over both of them. “I don’t know. All I can tell you is a while,” Lindsay answered him. “I’ve been watching one of your little pets from the base.” “What are you talking about?” “Look in the field. See the white cow closest to us? Look ten feet to the left of it. See that little thing walking around?” “I see it, but I have no idea what it is, do you?” “Why are you asking me?” she asked, then pointed to the two pairs of binoculars sitting on t

    As they pulled toward the house, they could see an older man standing in front of the barn and waving to them. He had a look on his face of a man who had seen something he could not explain. “That would be the gentleman we need to speak to first. This is your call, Annie, so you get to run with it

    They sat and watched the lights continue to move among the trees. Most of the movements were slow and cautious, but occasionally, one would suddenly dart in a direction and jerk to a stop. Two more times, a light went into the air and came back down, cutting a tree down when it did. Finally, after

    He opened the department door and held it for Lindsay. When they reached his car, Max opened the car door for her. She just stopped and looked at the door, then at him. “Don’t give me that look. I know Margaret has been mean to you, so I am trying to be nice to you. Now get in the car,” Max told h

    “Linz, we’re here,” Wren called out as soon as he opened the door.“Hi, sweetie. Mrs. Gold, how was your flight?” Lindsay asked as she stood up and walked toward the door.“It was fine,” Margaret answered, then looked at Lindsay. “That thing on your face is disgusting! Why have you not tried to cov
