Wind

When most people think of Texas, they most likely imagine big hats, wide open ranges, and cowboys. What most people don't see is the violent and destructive criminal underbelly, left in the wake of dying, dilapidated towns, and desperate people shattered by addiction. Ranger Dollins takes the reader on a deep-dive into this forgotten world in the explosive cautionary tale of Wind. The story starts with a bang when Daryl Haze, a man struggling with addiction and his own inner demons, attempts to rob a bank in Nacogdoches Texas. The robbery quickly turns sideways and leads Daryl on a one-way collision course with a dangerous Texas Ranger, who bends the law, or disregards it completely, to achieve his goals. Wind asks hard questions and gives no easy answers, weighing in on themes such as the murkiness of morality, the rejection of faith, and the challenge of denying one's programming. It all culminates in a violent showdown that's sure to please any fan of the thriller or western genres. Through subversive twists and turns, and vividly descriptive imagery, Ranger Dollins presents a compelling story that snatches your attention from the very beginning, and holds it until the story's chilling end.
