Writer Wednesday - Sneak Peek from the upcoming Kelli Storm novel, Eye of the Storm

She slammed on the brakes, swerved to the right and jumped the curb. The car slammed into a decorative yard light and came to rest in a cloud of dust, the hood buried in a huge shrub.

  She pushed the airbag out of the way, shook her head, pushed the door open and climbed out. She staggered to the back of the car, using it to maintain her balance, and pulled her Glock.

Ugly son of a bitch. She stumbled to the passenger side, fell and rolled onto her back. Come on, motherfucker, what are you waiting for?

  She forced her head up, fighting the pain and tapped her ear bud. “Anytime, guys,” she said and passed out.
