She heard the hum of Brenner’s crossbow and chain crashed down behind her
Bonnie Hanks
Had to read this a couple of times because it doesn’t sound clear when parsed a particular way. Are there two separate actions being described, or is this describing two sounds as one thing takes place? “She heard the hum of Brenner’s crossbow, and the chain crashed down behind her” versus “She heard the hum of Brenner’s crossbow and the chain crashing down behind her.” Based on the following paragraph, I think the former was the intention.
