The Ones Who Live in Espington

Rich Bruno, once a nineteen-year-old Miner, now has the opportunity to move from his poor Home City of Adlington to the wealthier Market City of Espington. He and a group of young Miners are transported via carriage to their new life. En route to Espington, the carriage is struck by a wood bomb. Several Miners are injured, a few are killed, and Bruno believes he sees a mysterious red-haired man that may or may not have been on the carriage to begin with. Getting to Espington was not easy for Bruno. Starting a new life there will be even harder. I hope you enjoy Book One of the Piner Trilogy.

Bruno sat in Julius' office with Cradock, Jago and Sayer standing by the door leaning against the wall. The President paced back and forth behind his desk. Winks the Ocelot was sprawled out on the window's ledge. Bruno had no idea what Julius and Maximus talked about back in Adlington. There must have been little to talk about because the conversation had been fairly short. All Bruno could remember was Kota's wooden hand inches away from gouging out his eye.

"Lord, I hate my brother," Julius said.

"What happened?" Bruno asked.

"Max doesn't know anything about Penni, or any of the Piners," Julius answered. "He said he's as scared of the Piners as we are. After the attack, he's never been more vulnerable."

"Don't tell me you fell bad for you brother," Jago muttered.
