Amazing Mrs. Pollifax (2014)
“Pollifax CHAPTER 14 Their precipitous flight from Yozgat was interrupted by Sebastien, who somewhat desperately reminded them that he had a horse, a dog, a wagon and a dancing bear to be retrieved. Colin crawled up front to the window and held a three-way conversation, the translations supplied by his uncle, but he crawled back to report that Sebastien was adamant: he could not go any further without his menage. They stopped briefly beside the road at the place where the gypsy had made camp; Se...bastien looked for several moments at Uncle Hu’s map, then marked a cross on the road, halfway between Yozgat and Kayseri.
Uncle Hu said, “He tells me the gypsies will be somewhere near the cross he’s marked, and camping within sight of the road because they expect him to follow.”
“And will he follow?”
“He’ll hope to catch up with us by dawn.”
They thanked Sebastien profusely for his help, Mrs. Pollifax gave him money from the wad pinned inside her baggy pants, and they resumed their breakneck trip south.MoreLess
