The Convict And The Cattleman (2014) - Plot & Excerpts
They swathed the skies with the low rumble of thunder and occasional tongues of lightning over the next couple of days, though the rain held off. Phil, true to his word, brought Bridgit the goat’s milk in the days following the party. There wasn’t a soul on the station unaware of the missing rubies. He expressed regret about Charity leaving the station before he could say good-bye. Bridgit suffered her own relationship troubles. Jonah was distant, riding out early each morning, returning late and retreating to the study until he went to bed. Phil made excuses for him, explaining about the sudden rise of the calf population. He looked tired as well, giving credit to his words. Jonah made no mention of the trip to Parramatta, either for marriage or to leave her at the Factory. A week loomed before she was supposed to return for reassignment. She feared he wouldn’t keep his word, that a set of earrings had ruined everything. The pearls, once a symbol of friendship and more, represented the cold, colorless world to which she might return.
