    About this ebook

    Clan: Season 3, Episode 7. Calum’s Rescue
    Calum and Big John have a near suicidal plan to save the women held by the Albino at Fort George. Nobody in their right mind would ride along with them. Except Adriana, who intends keeping an eye on them. And a dozen rescued women who ride because their daughters are among the captives.

    Two highlanders and a wagon full of women against a hundred convicts from the worst of London's jails.

    And the Mackenzie brothers are still waiting for them at the fort. They're in no hurry. They prey always turns up, and then dies. It's just the way of things. And so it will be with Maclean.

    While in the background, Beatrice York, the Viceroy of Scotland, turns another page of her plan to bring Scotland to its knees for daring to challenge the king.

    Today a lot of good men are going to die for a cause that is already lost to politics.

      Calum’s Rescue

      Beatrice York, the Viceroy of Scotland—and lands to the north—followed the giant known as Whale down the gangplank and onto Edinburgh docks.

      The docks were a death trap for the unwary, with stores being swung on and off ships and wagons and carriages jostling for every inch of space, while a throng of arriving and departing passengers were accosted on every side by sellers of anything a person could desire.

      Beatrice stopped at the edge of the dock and looked around. There was supposed to be a coach and drivers to meet her and escort her to the castle, but they were nowhere in sight. Words would be spoken and heads would roll. She wished she had the authority to actually behead a few ranking government officials to send a strong signal, but she didn’t. Yet.

      Whale put down the two trunks he’d been carrying and looked back at his new mistress. She was being jostled by three men with baskets of fish, bread, and something in a bottle. He walked back to her, picked up the fish vendor in his right hand and tossed him into the sea, along with his basket of stinking wares. The other two traders watched the man open-mouthed as he tried desperately to stay afloat and save his basket of old fish, then took one look at the man blocking out the sun and ran.

      Whale looked around, spotted what he needed, and stepped out in front of a small carriage. The driver pulled the horses up and was about to shout abuse when his brain caught up with what he was looking at. He touched the brim of his wide hat and even tried a smile while he waited for the big man to do whatever he wanted. He watched as he walked around the two-horse team and opened the carriage door.

      The overdressed fat man started to protest, but a hand the size of a shovel caught his silk coat and threw him out onto the baskets and kegs lining the docks.

      Whale held the carriage door open and waited for Beatrice to get inside. Where will you be going, miss?

      The castle, Beatrice said, lifted a chewed chicken leg between her thumb and finger and tossed it out.

      You, Whale said, looking up at the driver. Take the lady to the castle. He closed the carriage door. And don’t hit no bumps.

      The driver looked at the fat man trying to haul himself to his feet among the stores, then back at Whale. And started the team moving very slowly, while Whale looked around for a wagon to take the viceroy’s baggage. There were plenty to choose from
