The Making of the Texas Kid: A Classic Western Series - Paperback

by Melody Groves (Author)

Tate Nolan harbors a bold ambition-to surpass the legendary fame of his outlaw idol, Jesse James.

Desperate for both money and a means to assert his place in the annals of history, Tate robs the local telegraph office, drawing the attention of the Blanco Hills's sheriff. But when he's unwittingly blamed for a local priest's murder-an act he vehemently denies-he decides to hit the road.

With a tarnished name and a refusal to be jailed, Tate finds himself in Fredericksburg, Texas, where he locates refuge with an unsuspecting widow. Yet, with a substantial reward on his head and a reputation to boot, peace is a commodity Tate can't control.

As a confluence of sheriffs and marshals descend on Fredericksburg, each vying for the lucrative reward, Tate must confront a life-altering decision-become Tate Nolan, law-abiding ranch hand...or Tate Nolan, feared outlaw.
