Six Sentence Sunday!

I participated Six Sentence Sunday for the first time last month, and since then things have been a little crazy. I enjoyed Six Sentence Sunday so much, though, so I am back on the horse. For those of my readers who don't know what Six Sentence Sunday is, it is a blog crawl a variety of authors participate in. You sign up for each week you want to participate, and then you post six sentences from any work of your choosing.

Last time I shared six sentences from a work-in-progress, the next Shades of Night story I have been working on. This week, I have decided to share six sentences from my paranormal thriller novel, Shadow House, which has been picking up an increasing amount of attention lately.

Here are my six sentences:

Patricia led Scott into a bedroom that was one of the smaller rooms. Patricia did not actually walk into the room, and in the moment before Scott set foot inside the room he understood why. His nose was assaulted with a stench that smelled like stale urine. Scott looked down at the brown carpeting, which was splotchy with stains of all types as if a battle had taken place in that very room. There were scratches in the pink and white teddy bear wallpaper, scarring deep into the plaster underneath. Some of the scratches were so deep the studs underneath the plaster were exposed and ravaged as well.
