“Shouting EMTs and Phoenix PD, FBI and state troopers. Hysterical victims’ families, morgue techs, and medical examiners.

A new rush of bodies poured in, wheeled on stretcher...s, shoving Lucy aside. She flung out an arm against the wall, bridging a desiccated corpse that was barely covered by a sheet. The stink of rotten meat boiled up, mingling with the sweat and reek of the emergency workers. Lucy fought an urge to gag. “Lucy!” The shout echoed above the general din.
