Searching For Home (Spies Of Chicago Book 1) - Plot & Excerpts
The chill evening air bit clear to his bones. In the main meeting area, dim light puddled around four lanterns set on a table at the front of the room. Wide-eyed men shuffled in after him. James moved to the far wall to leave room for the rest. He pulled his straw hat down to shadow his face. Not likely anyone would recognize him here. But with murder and mayhem pumping through the laborers’ veins, he wouldn’t take the chance. Unfolding the leaflet, he squinted to read the horrible message again. Revenge! Workingmen to Arms! The grand scale meeting was scheduled for tomorrow—May 4—Haymarket Square, but operatives with the Cygnus Brotherhood had heard whispers of the gathering of dedicated anarchists amassing at Grief’s Hall. James shook his head. Fools. The death of six men at the strike on McCormick’s earlier in the evening had served to inspire them to fight harder.
