Inspector Hobbes And the Blood: a Fast-Paced Comedy Crime Fantasy (Unhuman)
“Though the rain was as heavy as a tropical downpour, the cold and a wind, too powerful to even consider going around me, blew that idea away.

'Follow me. We'll take care of these two and then we're done and can head back to the station.' As I jogged after him, a worrying habit I had no intention of forming, the effort started giving me just a little wonderful warmth.

I wasn't used to the kind of activity to which I'd been subjected in the last few hours and every muscle was aching. I muttered to myself about what I'd do to Editorsaurus Rex should I ever chance upon him in a darkened churchyard – not that I could imagine him ever allowing himself to fall into such an awkward or uncomfortable situation, never mind into an open grave.MoreLess
