Sample Excerpt — Chapter 4: The Ambush
"The column was nearly half a mile long. From above, hidden in the green canopy, the Maroons watched
them come. They had chosen the killing ground weeks before — the narrow defile at the bottom of
Dragoon Hole, where the road dropped sharply and the walls of the earth closed in on either side.
Sandford had no idea. He rode at the head, confident. An hour later, he was dead, and a thousand
British soldiers were running."
