It's Six Sentence Sunday! This is the tenth tidbit from Magic of the Loch. It's available for print now. Yeah!! E-book coming soon!
Magic of the Loch is a romance between Alan and Michaela, but there is also a mystery the two will need to solve. A sinister shape shifter with a vendetta against Alan threatens Drumnadrochit. He's made Loch Ness his personal hunting ground.
In this scene: Alan and Michaela are with Blake, the doctor who is heading up the investigation. They are at the morgue. Alan is hoping if he looks at the bodies of the victims he'll get a fix on what preternatural being is attacking the people of Drumnadrochit, Scotland.
Alan inhaled deeply, ignoring the smell of formaldehyde and death. He wanted another scent. A preternatural being had a signature scent unique to the species.
Werewolves were more earthy like fresh overturned dirt and plants. Vampires were iron based and a sea witches’ scent was sea salt topped with a little charged oxygen. This preternatural being smelled liked crushed heather and peat.
I hope you enjoyed the six!
