| Summary |
"Jim Blawcyzk gets handed three serious cases within twenty-four hours, and that's a lot for even the most veteran Ranger to handle. First, an apparent murder-suicide at the McDonald Observatory turns out to be a double homicide. By the time he's through with that crime scene, it's mid-morning. He's on his way home to get some much-needed rest before completing his reports and continuing his investigations when another call comes in. A bank robbery gone wrong has resulted in the shooting of a deputy sheriff and a hostage situation in downtown Alpine. To top things off, when Jim finally arrives home, he is greeted with the news that his six-year-old son's first grade teacher has told him his father cannot take part in the school's annual Career Day. According to the new arrival from California's "woke" viewpoint, the entire two-hundred-and-fifty-year history of the Texas Rangers is rife with violence and intolerance. Young Josh is crushed by the news. Jim will have a tough job unweaving the tangled webs which lead to the perpetrators of the murders, arsons, and horse thefts. And while he's at it, that self-righteous teacher will learn exactly what it means to be a member of the most celebrated law enforcement agency in history, the Texas Rangers."-- Provided by publisher. |
