Excerpt from Chapter 11:
Sean felt numbness in his arms and an intense chill throughout his body. Looking up, he saw that his hands were bound together and that he was dangling from a hook like a beef carcass. He turned his head to the right which caused him to rotate slightly. Out of the corner of his eye, he could see another figure hanging next to him. He contorted his body to get a better look.

Her head bobs up and her eyes open wide. She wiggled but is dangling helplessly. Coky stepped up to her and revved up the saw.
