Chapter 147: Leigh

Face-to-face with a dead man in the back of a police car. Not quite how I thought I would spend my night, but pretty close.

A squicky feeling shivered to the insides of my boots as I reached a hand past his nose to the handle on the opposite door. I had been close to dead people before, but never full-body contact from his snakeskin cowboy boots all the way up to his XXXL camouflage I Hunt Birds for the Chicks shirt, and I would be perfectly okay if I never did this again.

But if he was dead, what had happened to the cop? Hopefully not the same thing that had almost happened to Darby. That wouldn't happen to Darby.

Something shiny on the floorboard next to the dead guy's head made me pause for a half-second. A police badge. With a bite taken out of the bottom.
