hot foot

Rebecca Leavitt said when she and her all-woman team arrived at the site with only classroom training, they did a “hot foot dance” on smoldering embers as their boss yelled “Get back in there!”

“Okay, so let's say, you were missing a wombie, right? If we did a hot foot spell, we'd go to the wombie burrow and try to retrace its steps. Try to see where it went.”

“By creating a hot foot map. We take a few of the wombie's things as locators of sorts. Things that have essence-traces is what my mama calls it.”

The hot foot map leading to nowhere haunted her.

“I want to do a hot foot,” Ella said.
