Rider Down - An American Novel |
| I eagerly hopped onto the crowded bus. As the doors closed a tall, well-built man with thinning white hair, stood up and faced us as he looked around the bus. “Listen up folks,” he said in a loud masculine voice, “My name is Matt.” His eyes opened wide and the deep lines on his tense weathered face tightened as he said, “Tomorrow is going to be a very long day. I expect all of you to be up by four in the morning and on a horse by sun up.” |

“You riders up front, form a line.” Matt shouted as his horse caught up to ours. “You’re the front line spread out and form a line.”
We all heard Matt we just weren’t sure what he wanted us to do. He kept shouting and telling us to form a line. “You’re the front row. You’ve got to keep the herd behind you, now spread out.” |
