Bell Mountain (The Bell Mountain Series) - Plot & Excerpts
He was so sure of it that when he came to the hermit’s cabin and found it empty, he decided to wait a day or two for the hermit to come back. Compared to camping on the hard ground in the rain, the cabin was a haven. He’d traveled hard and needed rest. He spent a night there and all of the next day. He was amazed to discover that the hermit had a whole Book of Scripture. A book like that, if it could be had at all, would cost a good deal of money. How had an impoverished hermit come by it? Martis was a well-traveled man, but he’d never met a hermit; this would be his first. He wondered what would make a man, in this day and age, sequester himself in the woods with only the Scriptures for company. It was unusual enough hundreds of years ago, unheard-of now. He hoped he’d have some time to question the hermit about it. It wasn’t the hermit who came to the cabin on the evening of the second day, but two men together. “Who’s that in the cabin?” someone called. Martis had heard them coming, but hadn’t come out to greet them.
