No one is around, but she can hear drumming. The walls are rounded and smoothed with plaster. She's walking across a flat plain, the ground is red clay like you find in the Southwest. "They're all more or less the same, just variations. Without a lab analysis, it could be anything, even a psychedelic. He tried to keep his tone neutral he didn't want to worry Cassie with his concern over these untested substances. I don't know whether they messed with her system, but when we got to Paris, she started having very strange dreams." This other sentinel gave her a formula for an herb brew that has been used by sentinels to sharpen their senses. Deb only has two senses that are very strong, with the other three better than average.
"What she didn't tell me is that she's been communicating with another sentinel. As you can imagine, Debra wanted to focus on France, kind of get a feel for her people. We took a couple of weeks off and went to Europe. Anyway, we thought we would take a nice trip, you know to commemorate it. He was interrupted by the arrival of their food.

But something strange has happened and I just don't know who to talk to about it. "Things are wonderful between us I've never been so happy. Rumor had it that they were getting along very well. How are things working out for you and Debra?"Īfter her breakup with Jim, Cassie had been paired with Debra Reeves from the Cascade Fire Department.
So, it was with some surprise that Blair looked up to find Cassie standing in front of him with a worried look on her face. Jim and his last Guide, Cassie Welles, had blended together like oil and water.
Everyone in the MCD, including Captain Simon Banks, was happy Jim had found someone compatible. Ever since he made the commitment to be Jim Ellison's official Guide, he'd been given full-access credentials and a desk next to Jim's. Blair Sandburg was sitting at his desk in the Major Crime Division bullpen of the Cascade PD.
