Excerpt
Aspen used one of the saddles as a pillow and even with all the rocks she had to lie on she was asleep as soon as she zipped up the sleeping bag. It had to be one o'clock by the time they all got to sleep.
It only stayed dark for about 4 hours or so, she couldn't have been asleep any longer than that because it was still dark when she bolted upright still enclosed in the sleeping bag. At first she thought she was dreaming because she thought she had heard a gun shot. It didn't take long for her to realize she was definitely not dreaming when she saw the flash as Gabe fired another shot.
