He is on the run for something he didn’t do.
If he tries, it will be like venturing out into the Mojave Desert. This is Fort MacKeeney, Kansas, with a sun blasted terrain of wheat stubble and dead grass stretching in all directions for as far as the eye can see. Mitch Walker gets off the train in the wrong damn town. The only more evil situation would be to be in trouble with the law besides. Nothing much worse than being stranded and broke in a prosperous small town among straight-ticket Republicans. Englisch.”I glanced around: drugstore, hardware, department store, movie theatre, grocery, couple of filing stations, the Kansas Pacific Railroad station, the bus depot. But when they push him too far, Ballard only has one recourse-cop or not, he comes out swinging.
And Naomi, who knows just what she wants. And then there's Lupe, pregnant by the son of one of the most influential men in town, who wants Ballard's help and isn't shy about how she goes about asking. DA Tom Flynn tries to enlist Ballard in his own fight against corruption-and dies mysteriously in a car accident the next day. Guys were still working the rackets, and shop owners were still getting killed if they didn't pay. He had ripped things wide open then, turning on the fat cats whom he had been protecting. ANY WOMAN HE WANTED Mike Ballard works homicide, busted down from lieutenant four years ago for accepting bribes. Caught between their jealous battle, Walker quickly discovers that he was better off when he was on the run-because one way or the other, nobody leaves the farm. It looks like a good place to hide out from Palmer and the local cops, but Walker soon finds himself torn between the scheming arrogance of his new employer, and the unsubtle advances of Cassel's willing wife, Eve. So Walker hops a train and ends up in a small town in Kansas, where he hires on at a huge farm owned by Barton M. Just a case of being in the wrong place at the wrong time, but his pursuer, Fred Palmer, has some very effective ways of getting a confession.
