Million Dollar Cowboy

By: Bill Ciccotti

Narrated by: K.W. Henley

Evil is strong and damn cruel. A lawman is often all that stands between the innocent and certain death. But who among us is truly innocent? Fast horses, six-guns, and Sioux warriors. A cowboy’s life is never dull, even in the twenty-first century.

Saddle up for a wild western rodeo of adventure. It’s a hard but beautiful land out here in Montana. One worth fighting to hold on to. Easy? No. Scary? Hell yes. But courage is loading up to do the right thing even when you’re frightened to death.
For you see, the heroes are long gone. All that’s left are the flawed but unbroken few cowboys who struggle along that grey line trying to hold back the loathsome. If I wasn’t a lawman, some say I’d a be quite an outlaw. Perhaps they’re right. But I wear the badge and I do my job.

I’m seventy and starting to feel a tad bit too old for all this macho, shoot’em up bullshit. But everyone’s got one last ride in them.

"One more ride. Ha. I’ll out ride all of you rodeo clowns."
