  The cliffs were high and impossible to climb.  
  Anyone wanting to get to the top would have to find another way to get there. I searched the complete area inside this impenetrable fortress.  
  There was no place anyone could hide. I was turning to go back to my horse when I felt the slug, before I heard the sound of the rifle shot. It knocked me head first into the side of Ruby, scaring her, where I slid to the ground.  
  The pain was unbearable, but I knew I couldn't stay where I was, laying here in the open.

  Nights of the Creaking Bed is full of colourful characters involved in affecting dramas: a girl who is rejected in love because she has three brothers to look after; a middle aged housewife who finds love again but has an impossible decision to make; a young man who can't get the image of his naked, beautiful mother out of his mind; a child so poor he has to hawk onions on Christmas day - and many others. Some, initially full of hope, find their lives blighted by the cruelty of others, or by being in the wrong place at the wrong time, or by just not knowing the "right" people.
  Corruption, religious intolerance, gratuitous violence, the irresponsible attitudes of some men to their offspring and the importance of joy are some of the big themes that underlie this memorable collection.
