In the heart of the Texas plains, a lone rifleman counts the approaching riders with a mix of caution and determination. Two, four, six, eight, he murmurs, assessing the situation as he listens intently to the ground beneath him. Among the eight figures, he suspects two are mules, and they are heading straight for him. With the timber as his only refuge, he knows time is critical. Will he be prepared when they arrive? Set against the backdrop of the 1800s, this gripping tale by British author Henry William Herbert immerses listeners in the tension and beauty of the Texan wilderness. - Summary by E.J.
