Chapter 28 - Fortifications at Pat's house & VCU Medical Center
Over the past four days, Raleigh had dug a six-foot trench behind the fraise around Pat’s house and had taken the dirt to build a six-foot earthen wall between the trench and house.
In front of the fortress, along the side of the hill, were layers of abatis, cheval-de-frise, and tripwires.
“Let’s drop the hostilities for a minute, Raleigh. Gayle is sick. I checked her into the VCU Medical Center.”
