    About this ebook

    The air was thick with moisture, cold and dark as a shadowy tomb. The cargo hold echoed with the whisper of claws against metal grates.

    Devyn heard the drips. Alone in the dark with alien monsters hunting her Devyn feared death.

    In the dark, with no one to help and monsters after her, Devyn was trapped.

    Droplets of water ghosted over her skin, an icy mist in the cold air.

      Fowling With A Fox Under A Wolf Moon

      Feb 16, 2022

      I hung my chest waders to dry over a roof joist in the shed. They had dangled there, like a headless corpse, for four weeks. The business of hedge laying had got in the way of my wildfowling for far too long. My abstemiousness ended when I accepted a

      Devyn shut her eyes, held her breath. The air was thick with moisture, like standing outside of the shower as the water pounded down and steam rose to fill the bathroom. It was a cold moisture, though, not warm and welcoming. She could have sworn that there were droplets running along her arms but when she rubbed one hand over her wrist her palm came away dry.
