Sergeant Rowdy Slater is the most skilled-and most
incorrigible-soldier in Dog Company, 506th PIR, 101st
Airborne, an elite group of paratroopers fighting for the
world's freedom in World War II. Through a bizarre set of circumstances, Rowdy returns to
the
States after the war, turns his life around, and falls
into
the only job he can find-preacher at the sparsely
populated
community church in Cut Eye, Texas, a dusty highway town
situated at the midpoint of nowhere and emptiness. The town's lawman, suspicious that Rowdy has changed his
ways only as a cover up, gives an ultimatum: Rowdy must
survive one complete year as Cut Eye's new minister or
end
up in jail. At first Rowdy thinks the job will be easy, particularly
because he's taking over for a young female missionary
who's
held the church together while the men were at war. But
when
a dark-hearted acquaintance from Rowdy's past shows up
with
a plan to make some quick cash, Rowdy becomes ensnared
due
to an irrevocable favor, and life turns decidedly
difficult. Rowdy's a man used to solving problems one of two ways:
with
his rifle or with his fists. Will he be able to thwart
his
old friend's evil schemes while remaining true to his new
higher calling? This is a wild ride of a book bursting with a bank
robbery,
kidnapping, desperate prayers, and barroom brawls. Before
the smoke clears, all sides just might end up getting
exactly what they want.
