A novel by

 
 
JL Tate, Texas Ranger is in the middle of a slow period, and he's spent several days throwing cards at his hat with little luck and even less skill. He lends a helping hand to the County Sheriff's office, and goes out to bring in a prisoner just to pass the time. The warrant reads... a civil disturbance and destruction of property. No big deal, except the location is more than 40 miles away and in the farthest corner of Reeves County, Texas.

When Tate confronts the man named Bandy Clanton, he finds a man who is disturbing to look at, practically illiterate, and one of the most unusual human beings he had ever met. While taking Bandy to Jail in Pecos, Tate receives a message of a bank robbery involving a large amount of cash and at least two killings. His orders are to drop everything and try to head them off at the border. The prisoner wants his day in court and refuses to be un-arrested. JL heads for the border, with Bandy Clanton a few yards behind him.

For a lawman to cross the border without the US State Department's approval was a major breech of protocol. If caught by the Federales, JL would spend a minimum of 5 years at hard labor... or more. Bandy Clanton was close behind him as Tate crossed the Rio Grande in the dead of night. The best Tate could do was to keep Clanton close by and hope he could he could bring them both back into the US somewhere.
Tighten your cinch and ride along with JL Tate... and Bandy. You just might meet a few strange and interesting folks along the way.
