June heat and weeks of waiting had made Captain O'Grady consider boredom a more immediate enemy than the French. The whisky is gone, the hens are gone, and drill is all that proves we remain soldiers instead of sun-baked prisoners. You step into this one-chapter preview with Dick Ryan at the center, where choices turn on the people, promises, and pressure already in the room. He rode out beneath guard, carrying the answer to a strategic question into the next chapter. The chapter closes on a continuation question rather than resolving the novel's larger arc.
