Shades Of Gray: A Novel Of The Civil War In Virginia - Plot & Excerpts
– Arabian Proverb Captain Carter watched Hunter sitting in the shadows with a remote look on his face, while some of the men talked and bragged in small groups around him. No one appeared mindful of the danger of the enterprise upon which they were about to embark—except perhaps Hunter himself. He stared at the distant horizon, apparently envisioning in explicit detail every facet of the conflict yet to come. As usual, Hunter had spun a veil of secrecy around the expedition. But from the looks on the men’s faces, Carter saw they were content to trust their fate to the one that led them. “You men looking for trouble?” Hunter came out of his trance when five of the men rode close enough to cause Dixie to lunge forward with teeth bared. “Yes, suh,” they shouted in unison. A devilish grin spread across Hunter’s face. “Good. Let’s go find you some.” Carter could not help laughing along with the men. Hunter appeared to be in a fine mood, and that usually portended plenty of action.
