"Yancey Bannerman is a homicidal maniac!" said the Texas Ranger. "He's killed two of my men, slugged a couple, and another man was wounded at the stables. He's also stolen horses, not to mention taking hostage the daughter of one of your top-ranking senators. Hell, the man has to be stopped at all costs."
The truth of it was that Governor Dukes' top Enforcer was a sick man, suffering from headaches caused by an old scalp wound. But that didn't change the facts.
Dukes turned his lined and weary face to Yancey's best friend and fellow Enforcer, Johnny Cato.
"Find him, John. I don't care how you do it--but track him down."
Cato nodded soberly. "Yes, sir."
Dukes looked at him steadily for a long moment, then added quietly, "And when you find Yancey, John ... I want you to kill him."
