William H. "Billy the Kid" Bonney Jr. isnt afraid to take risks. But during a train heist near his hometown, the odds catch up with him when a passenger recognizes the nineteen-year-old outlaw. Fed up with Billys bad ways, The Law sends its best man to bring him in: Sheriff Willis Monroe, Billys own cousin and former best friend. But Willis isnt the only one on Billys tail. The Kids two-timing partners are hunting him, too--and a conniving posse wants Billy (and the sheriff!) dead. This fictional tale of real-life legend Billy the Kid imagines William Bonneys fate had his life of crime taken a very different turn. Includes an authors note about the real Billy the Kid.
