CHAPTER 22

By now, everyone at Camp Eastwood was aware of the calamitous events that had taken place the previous night, and all understood the reason for the Benton group’s pale, shell-shocked faces. That included the “Georgians”, as the recently-arrived recruits from Gainesville were known, though the term amused Simone somewhat, seeing as she was from North Carolina.

The unexpected influx of people forced a change in the camp’s sleeping arrangements. Three of the farmhouse bedrooms had been designated for the Georgians - one for Simone and Marcie, another for Laura and Jenny, and the tiny bedroom at the end of the hall for Billy Bingham. Given the circumstances, none objected to camping outside until the Bentons’ situation was resolved. It was summertime, and all were content to sleep in tents, pitched under a stand of apple trees in the field adjacent to the farmhouse.

Fred and Eric’s situation was different though, and the two had already moved into a utility room next to the kitchen. With easy wheelchair access down the hall, it suited their needs perfectly.

What alarmed everyone far more than any inconvenience was Mason’s brutal attack at Lake Ocoee. It served to underscore the reality of their situation. Even for a large group such as the Bentons, danger and menace still lurked. Nowhere was safe in the world anymore.
