Son of a Wanted Man (1984)
“Desperately, he fought the ropes that bound him, but those who did the tying were skilled with ropes and had tied many a head of cattle and horses.
As his eyes became accustomed to the darkness he looked for something he could use to free himself, but there was nothing. No projecting corner, no nail, nothing.
Outside all was still. Had they gone? He had no way of knowing, but if Perrin was not gone he soon would be, leaving enough men to watch Ben Curry. Mike ceased struggling and tried to thin...k. If he could get free and discover Ben's secret route across the river he might beat Perrin to it and be waiting when the outlaws arrived.
Where was Roundy? And Doe Sawyer?
