When Sheriff Milt Kovak arrests Darrell Blanton for killing his wife, Darrell''s mama, Eunice Blanton, storms the Longbranch Inn and takes Milts wife, Jean McDonnell, Holly Humphries and others hostage. Unless Milt releases her boy, a hostage will be shot every ten minutes. But Darrell has been found dead in his cell, with not a mark on him . . .
Arresting a Blanton was always going to be bad news, but things are about to get even worse for Sheriff Milt Kovak.
Everyone in Prophesy County knows that you dont mess with the dim-witted, in-bred Blantons. So when Milt gets a call to say that Darrell Blanton has shot dead his wife, hes expecting a rough ride.
Arresting Darrell and putting him in the slammer may have been surprisingly easy, but things are about to get a whole lot worse. Eunice Blanton, Darrells mama, takes a dim view of her sons arrest and decides to storm the Longbranch Inn where Milts partner, Jean McDonnell is hosting a bachelorette party for Holly Humphries. With the women taken hostage, Eunices terms are unsurprisingly simple: release her boy or a hostage gets shot every ten minutes. But theres a problem: Darrell has been found dead in his cell, with not a mark on him . . .
