The house loomed out of the darkness like a hulking beast, its windows
black eyes, the front door left gaping wide in a permanent scream. Yellow
Crime Scene Do Not Cross tape was strung around the perimeter,
announcing to the world that bad stuff had happened here, just in case
anybody had missed the stink of burned flesh and the eerie silence hanging
over everything. Only the occasional crackling dispatcher call from one of
the police cruisers parked out front broke the stillness.
A shiver crawled up Toni Parthen’s spine, and she had the embarrassing
urge to turn around and run. She really didn’t care for creepy stuff. She
dutifully headed for the house anyway, cutting through the red and blue
police lights flashing rhythmically across the brick walkway. A uniformed
officer was posted at the front door.
She lifted the ID badge hanging around her neck and showed it to him.
“I’m your blood expert out of Scripps Memorial. Dr. Toni Parthen.” A real
doctor of hematology, not a mere intern, but still a lowly Fellow. Which
meant that when the San Diego Police Department needed a blood
specialist, she was the one who got yanked away in the middle of watching
How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days to whatever gory scene needed her
scientific expertise.
The officer glanced at her badge, then down at the medical bag she was
carrying, and then inevitably – she nearly sighed – his eyes landed on her
boobs. The Girls were bundled up in a winter coat, nice and tight against the
cold January weather, but they were of a size that defied concealment.
She cleared her throat, quashing the urge to quip, Eyes up here, pal.
“Uh … yeah, go on in.” To his credit, the officer blushed a little.
“They’re waiting for you upstairs.”
She entered the house, passing through a dimly lit foyer and a deserted,
well-kept living room. The stink of burned flesh was stronger in here, like a
cannibal barbecue gone terribly wrong, and her esophagus tightened. God,
but she hated forensics. She arrived at the bottom of a flight of stairs and
stopped. Waiting for her at the top was a man with a badge on his belt and a
gun in a shoulder holster.
She exhaled sharply. “Crap, not you.” The night just got worse.
Detective John Waterson arched a single brow at her, one corner of his
mouth climbing upward. “I’m going to stand here and pretend I’m not
insulted by that, if it’s all the same to you.”
Toni rolled her eyes. “No offense intended, Detective, but your cases
stink.” Waterson and his partner, Pablo Ramirez, were on the Occult Crimes
Unit, and their crime scenes always ran high on creepiness. Too high.
Waterson’s smile widened, the curve of his mouth masculine and sexy,
his amazing blue-green eyes warming with amusement.
Trumpets went off in her head. And here was the real reason she didn’t
like working with this man: John Waterson was hot.
