There! " Hobart, poking about in the rubble of baggage, suddenly exclaimed: "God! " Cole left the angry woman and went behind the coach. Half buried in baggage and freight lay the driver's body. His head was twisted at an odd angle, and the life was gone from him. A strong odor of whiskey rose from him. Hobart grinned. " Cole said: "He was as sober as you are. That smell is from his bottle. " He shrugged impatiently. " He strode to the high bank and along it until he came to a place where he could climb out.

Her dress, revealingly low-cut, had fallen away from her shapely ankles. Her hair, not quite black, was in complete disarray. Sprawled out this way, her face smudged and dirty, there was an earthiness about this woman that Cole would not have believed possible. Her dress molded each curve of her body faithfully, showed its sensual, virginal beauty. He felt again a strong attraction.
