There is no gallows-bird, however brutal he may be, that the English would disdain to recruit in their army to try to hinder the Revolution. And, no doubt, in matters of cruelty and diabolic shrewdness, the Scalped is the best specimen of villain to be found on the square. Mark manages to avoid him, but will he also be able to save General Rattcliff’s life, the man whom the Scalped is instructedto kill? Once again General Rattcliff is in danger, consigned to the English by one of his men. But treachery is not always the result of calculation and hatred, and Mark chooses to give the felon soldier as second chance, as well as taking advantage of the undefinable concoctions prepared by Gufo Triste to rout the entire garrison under Ratcliff’s custody.
