"Six Feet Four" by Jackson Gregory is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set against a backdrop of a fierce storm in the mountains, where characters gather at a remote road house called Poke Drury's. It presents an array of male guests and one intriguing young woman, Winifred Waverly, who arrives drenched and seeking refuge amid an atmosphere dripping with suspense. At the start of the novel, the storm rages outside Poke Drury's road house, where the one-legged proprietor welcomes a large group of men seeking shelter. Among the guests is Winifred Waverly, whose arrival disrupts the typical rugged banter of the men, capturing their attention and curiosity. As the night unfolds, conversations hint at the recent dangers in the area, including violent robberies. This tension escalates dramatically with the arrival of a masked highwayman who robs the place during the chaos, leading to a series of events that will shape the interactions between the characters and set the stage for the unfolding drama. The opening effectively establishes the novel's themes of danger, romance, and the intriguing dynamics of frontier life. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
