Hunted and Harried

A troop of dragoons crossed the Cairn and Cluden in search of Andrew Black and a forbidden religious gathering. Glendinning, take one man along the right-hand path and report any cottage within two miles. You step into this one-chapter preview with Jean Black at the center, where choices turn on the people, promises, and pressure already in the room. The girls' faint trail entered ground where hoofprints would be easy to read. The chapter closes on a continuation question rather than resolving the novel's larger arc.
