Whoever was pulling all the crap, they are not afraid ofto play detective? Maybe this shit was all randohosts, vampires, olves, millionaires, ER docs Why wouldn&039;t weird shit happen all of a sudden? Weird shit did happen all of a sudden Just not to everyone, and not all at once Usually

I looked at my watch Almost eleven o&039;clock Too late to call Mom back Not that I was in the mood But the olves were probably still up and around

I punched in Wyndham&039;s cell number, and he picked up immediately

"Yes, Betsy?"

"How&039;d you knoas me?"

"Caller ID, dear What can I do for you? Have you heard fro your call Wait a minute My name wouldn&039;t show up on your-"

"No, but your landlady&039;s does And she&039;s in the hospital right now, yes? Unlikely to be phoning me" There was a pause, and then he added, "We did our research, dear"

"You did?" I said, s since our arrival here It sihed, a rich, deep chuckle

In the background, I could hear, "Is that Betsy? Let me talk to her"

"Stop that, you&039;re married" Then, louder, "Betsy? Are you there?"

"Of course I&039;rumbled "Where the hell else would I be?"

"As I said in e, the trail is cold I think you may have to prepare yourself for the worst"

"I&039;ve been doing that since I woke up dead," I lied, trying to sound tougher than I felt

"Uh-huh But there is a soer problem We&039;ll have to deal with"

"Fabulous Hit me"

"The full moon, dear It&039;s in two days"

"What?"

"The Full Moon We Will Get Hairy"
