Snippet

On the television set, which was fighting to stay alive, was breaking news.  She caught bits and pieces of it as she emptied the bowl of blood-tainted water and threw out the cloth.  It was about  a high-speed chase that had occurred about a half-hour ago.  Beth shook her head.  Apparently, Donovan wasn’t the only idiot driving around during a hurricane.

She went back into the living room and began replacing all the medical supplies into the first-aid kit.  Behind her, a reporter was explaining that the driver of the car was believed to be a murder suspect.

“The name of the –”

The lights flashed, prompting Beth to snatch up her flashlight.

“Donovan Goldwyn.”

Her fingers went cold around the plastic tube as ice frosted her veins.  She straightened her spine and turned stiffly to the television, her heart wasn’t beating in her chest.  On the screen was the picture of the man who was right now changing in her bedroom.  Above it was a caption in bold letters that read – SUSPECT.

She gripped the flashlight in her frozen fingers.  Her heart thudded fearfully.  She stared into the immobilized violet eyes through the glass.

“Oh my god,” she gasped.

She had brought a murderer into her home!
