THE ROAD TO PARIS.
CHAPTER I. A LODGE IN THE WILDERNESS.
CHAPTER II. "OVER THE HILLS AND FAR AWAY."
CHAPTER III. AT THE SIGN OF THE GEORGE.
CHAPTER IV. OF A BROKEN SABBATH AND BROKEN HEADS.
A restless young rifleman finds himself marching with Arnold’s army through the frozen wilds of Maine, where even a simple river crossing tests his courage and quick wit. Amid the crack of muskets and the howl of winter winds, he encounters a formidable sergeant’s wife whose practical daring hints at the extraordinary companions he will meet.
The trek soon turns into a tangled web of danger and intrigue as the party ventures farther from home, confronting hostile terrain, daring escapes, and whispered conspiracies that suggest a larger conflict beyond the battlefield. Along the way, friendships are forged, a mysterious woman called Amabel appears, and the promise of a distant, glittering Paris looms on the horizon, offering both hope and uncertainty.
Through vivid scenes of battle, rugged wilderness, and the spark of budding romance, the story captures the restless spirit of a generation yearning for freedom. Listeners will be swept along a road that twists between heroic deeds and personal trials, all while the distant drumbeats of destiny draw ever nearer.
