Six Sentence Sunday - Meet UNATBI Agent Sam Rose

My six sentences for the week, from my current WIP, Jane Doe.

Alabama spring blasted Sam’s face as she opened the door. One hundred percent humidity and ninety degree heat. Just trudging across the parking lot to the morgue left her sweat-damp shirt clinging to her like a bad boyfriend.

A ticking was the only warning she had before sprinklers turned on full blast. Black hair dripped into her eyes, so much for trying to curl it. Tomorrow she’d sleep in the extra hour.

    Sarah Grimm- That's all Google. I'd love to find a gravestone for the real photo, but the year is 2069, so you can guess how likely that is to happen.
