Lo Siento

A stranger comes to town. A penitent reverend and a shopworn sheriff. A diamond thief with Hollywood ambitions. A disastrous chili cook-off.

Act naturally.

Samuel arrives to the lonely West Texas town of Lo Siento out of money and out of gas. He quickly finds work at a failing local bar but finds getting out of town is another story.

Finally a book that answers the question: where have all the cowboys gone?
