Excerpt from The ReconnaissanceThe sergeant leaned forward: Look out, you fool! He said in a sharp undertone, lie down I With a start of obvious relief, the other dropped on his hands and knees. For a moment both men listened breathlessly. Then the new comer began to crawl. Half rising on one knee, the sergeant made an angry gesture of caution, then, doubling up, fell back with a groan. His companion, disregarding the signal, continued to creep up the donga and, reaching his side, sank down, dislodging a stone noisily. The wounded man's face shone livid in the darkness, seizing the other by the collar he thrust a hand over his mouth and held him still, with a tense ness more peremptory and menacing than any word.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
