Halloween Decorations \u2013 I love to see the imagination some people have, all the outside decorations and lights around the neighborhood and it\u2019s fun to put up a few inside and outside my house.
\nHalloween Costumes \u2013 not for me, but seeing the children trick or treat in their costumes is so much fun. And so many parents make costumes that are unique.
\nHalloween Candy – think this one\u2019s obvious. Yum\u2026<\/p>\n

Blurb:<\/strong> Nurse Evie Dalton succumbs to greed and a chance to work with sexy Dr. Adam Marsden. She accepts a position at an isolated hospital with an onsite animal farm, screams in the night, and mysterious limos arriving in the dark. People disappear and turn up dead. There\u2019s no way to leave and no communication outside the town.<\/p>\n

Dr. Adam Marsden left his past behind. Now he has it all; a great job, money, and a chance to buy his own hospital. But he hadn’t counted on Evie Dalton. Because of him, she\u2019s at risk and might be the next victim.<\/p>\n

Excerpt:<\/strong>
\nOn the way to the shower Evie heard a car. She detoured to the window, opened the curtains slightly and watched two limos pull up beside the hospital. Nine or ten people got out and disappeared into the back wing. They appeared to be both men and women. Most of them carried small black bags. The limos backed up, turned around and left.<\/p>\n

Now what would all those people be doing going into the hospital? They didn\u2019t look like patients. What else could they be? They were obviously going to be there for a while since their transportation had left. They\u2019d gone into the back wing; one of the wings Evie hadn\u2019t been shown<\/p>\n

Evie let the curtain close. She chewed her lower lip and tried to figure out what they might be doing. Her mind was a total blank.<\/p>\n

In the shower she let the hot water pulsate against her skin and turned so the water hit directly at the base of her neck. It might help to wash away some of the stress.<\/p>\n

She glanced out the window again. This time an ambulance slipped quietly through the dusky night. It slid up to a large door down from where the other group of people had entered. Evie couldn\u2019t resist. She stood to one side so she wasn\u2019t reflected in the light and let the curtains almost close together so she wouldn\u2019t be noticed. She watched the ambulance attendants open the back door and remove a stretcher. They carried it inside. By the shape, it appeared to be a body under the covers. She couldn\u2019t tell if it was a man or a woman or even if it was dead or alive.<\/p>\n

Things got more curious. Evie was sure there was probably a good explanation, but what kind of surgery would they be doing on someone brought in by ambulance out here? To the best of her knowledge, they didn\u2019t have staff working in the operating rooms at night. Warren said he worked nights. She should go down and ask him what a group of people and a body did at night.<\/p>\n

Evie turned away from the window. A scream pierced the air. A chill ran down her spine. She stopped and listened. It wasn\u2019t repeated. She wasn\u2019t even sure if it was human. It might have been an animal. Maybe a wild animal.<\/p>\n

What was really going on here? She felt like she should do something, but what? She didn\u2019t know what it was or even where it came from. She couldn\u2019t phone anyone. There really wasn\u2019t much she could do.<\/p>\n

A residual chill still claimed her body as she buttoned her blouse. Her mind tried to figure out what was going on at the hospital. She\u2019d ask Warren about it next time they talked.<\/p>\n

It wasn\u2019t just her overactive imagination. That scream had been for real. Something unusual was going on and they didn\u2019t want people to know about it.<\/p>\n
