Lindsay looked at the clock on her office wall. It was almost 3:30 in the afternoon, and she was waiting for the evening shift to start arriving. Today was the day that Annie would begin training on the same shift as Andy and Big Bob. She knew Big Bob could handle it, but she was worried about Andy. Andy had an anxiety disorder that he was finally beginning to overcome. When she became Sheriff, Andy could barely utter a single word to a woman, but now, he could finally speak to women. Andy was still not able to look them in the eye when he did, but he was getting better, and Lindsay was happy for him and proud of him for that. She just hoped that Annie Huggins would not undo all of the progress he had made. “Sheriff,” Cat said, standing in her office door, “Are there any plans on what to do if Andy can’t handle Annie’s constant talking?” “No, not yet. I hope Andy can handle it, and Annie can keep her talking under control. It will take a lot of work on both their parts. Big Bob will

“So, do you guys think tonight will be quiet or busy?” Annie asked Big Bob and Andy just after Sheriff Gold had left the Department. “I can’t believe you just used the 'Q' word. Didn’t Little Bob tell you never to use that word?” Big Bob asked her, shaking his head. Andy and Madison just looked at Annie in amazement. Most people did not believe in the superstition that using the word quiet made things happen during a shift. However, they knew it was true, and it often did cause things to get busy and usually go downhill quickly. “He told me not to say quiet, but that can’t be true. Do all of you really believe in that superstition?” Annie asked in disbelief. “Yes!” Big Bob, Andy, and Madison all said in unison. Before anyone could say anything else, the phone rang. “Sheriff’s department, how may I help you?” Madison said when she answered the call. She began typing as the person on the other line explained their situation and gave the address. “Ma’am, we will have someone out th

Big Bob parked the patrol car, and they walked into the sheriff’s department. When they walked in, they saw Madison reading a book behind the front counter and Andy sitting at the same desk as when they had left. “Well, that was one for the books,” Big Bob told Andy and Madison as he plopped down in the chair at his desk. “Was it a real fire-breathing dragon?” Madison asked skeptically. “I wouldn’t call it a dragon, but it was this kind of snaky, lizard, lookin’ thing. It didn’t really breathe fire. It kind of exhaled this gassy stuff that would catch fire in the air after a couple of seconds. Darndest thing I ever saw,” Big Bob told her. “Did you call Agent Gold?” Madison asked. “You had better believe I did. I might be a hillbilly, but I’m not stupid,” Big Bob said. Annie sat listening to the exchange and then asked, “How is it that the Sheriff and Agent Gold can be married and yet not tell each other about this stuff? Isn’t he the one who is in charge of all of this weirdness

Sheriff Lindsay Gold sat at her desk, reading the reports from the night before. She was not too worried about the reports from Max, but she was concerned about what Big Bob, Annie, and Andy had encountered and the missing time they had experienced.Max had two calls for the night. One was a report of strange lights in an open field. His report said he could see the lights when he arrived, but they went out almost immediately. When he checked the field, he found an intricate crop circle and no sign that anyone had been there. He had returned after the sun had come up and taken pictures of it. Lindsay had to admit that the photos of the geometric pattern were stunning.The second call was a little disturbing to Lindsay because it was the only thing that had ever frightened her, even as a child. It had not caused any damage. It had, however, frightened the cattle of a local farmer, and the farmer, for a good reason.Lindsay wrote down all the information for the calls to put them on

Lindsay had just pressed the send button on her phone when she heard the door chime and looked up to see two large men walk into the department. Cat immediately ran to them, greeting them with hugs and kisses. As Lindsay watched, she knew those had to be Cat’s brothers. She watched as Cat turned and walked toward her office while the men stood quietly at the front counter.“Sheriff, my brothers are here if you have the time to meet with them,” Cat said, standing at Lindsay’s office door.“Of course I have time. Bring them in,” Lindsay said.“Yuri, Viktor,” Cat called out, motioning for them to enter the office. Lindsay stood from her desk as the two men walked in.“Gentlemen, it is a pleasure to meet you both,” Lindsay said as she shook their hands.“The pleasure is all ours. My name is Viktor, and this is my brother Yuri,” Viktor said, nodding toward his brother.“Ma’am,” Yuri said with a slight nod.“Please sit, both of you. Cat said that you are both working as officers in the cit
