Homeward Bound (Journeyman Book 1) - Plot & Excerpts
Through the mist, the sounds of quick footfalls rose as two figures raced down Eaves Green toward its intersection with Ashley Lane. A small farm was nearby, bleakly taunting with opportunities and places to hide, but a solid stone wall blocked their way. Rows of tall evergreen hedges grew right up against them, all working together to keep the riffraff out. “Dammit,” spat one of the men as a cockerel crowed, the eastern horizon growing brighter. Time was wasting and he quickly glanced across his shoulder to check if anything was on their heels. Nothing living was there, but a gray shroud masked everything including their pursuers; there was a moment to figure something out, but it would not last long. He snapped his head forward, searching high and low for any break in the irregular cobblestone, or perhaps a thinned out part of the hedge that could be pushed through. If so, they could then hole up somewhere on the property - in the barn, under equipment, anywhere but the open road - until it was safe to slip away.
