From Liberty and Opportunity...
At the road Jack turned in the opposite direction from where she expected.
"Jack?" she queried.
"We have to take a back road," he replied. "There’s a group of riders on the road and they’re heading this way." He grimaced in the darkness. "I recognized some of them. They’re your father’s friends."
"Oh, My God!" Amanda responded. "You mean they know?"
Jack shrugged. "I doubt it," he said, "but it would he foolish to ride right past them, wouldn’t it? We’ll take the fork road around the lumber mill. It’s not much further."
"Jack," whispered Amanda and stared across at her companion. "I’m scared. There is no reason for those men to be on the road at this time unless they’re looking for something. Are you sure you never told anyone?"
Jack looked tall and the same as ever, clean shaven with a normal floppy black hat, jacket , trousers and boots. His white teeth smiled in the dull moonlight.
"My Dear," he said as the two horses increased their pace to a canter. "It is okay. By breakfast we’ll be in Vancouver and free. Now, just relax and let Stargo do the work."
