Book excerpt
They moved deeper into the woods, the shadows around them expanding. The horses plodded in an easy, ambling gait over the road that was covered with dead pine needles, their easy movement and that of the wagon producing a trance-like effect that on one seemed immune to. All conversation ceased as everyone seemed to fall under a strange, mesmerizing spell.
Similar to the vibration of electricity running through wires, a fierce humming reached Lee’s ears as she cautiously peered at her surroundings. The droning was far away at first, but grew distinctly louder in a matter of seconds. Her eyes scanned the canopy of trees above. She looked for power poles, but found nothing remotely resembling them.
With no warning, a tingling sensation suddenly seared up her spine causing her to sharply inhale. Then a twist of vertigo made her grab the edge of her seat.
“You alright, Ms. Sheridan?” Jace asked, his voice filled with rising concern.
She tried to look at him, tried to answer his question, but couldn’t seem to find the power to speak as the buzzing noise rose higher, then suddenly subsided seconds later.
Just as Leela was about to convince herself she had imagined it all, another voice filled her ears, the tenor of it full of wonder as it announced –
“You’ve come back to me.”
