Summary:

"When they left the Ozarks to start a new life in Warbonnet, Texas, the Shannon family thought their moonshining days were over. But it turns out that running a horse ranch and farm is harder than it looks--especially when the family patriarch dies under mysterious circumstances. Now it's up to the prodigal son, Pike Shannon, to rescue them from ruin. His plan: break out the old still, brew a batch of the secret family recipe, and sell some 190-proof white lightning to the locals. The whole county is dry as a bone, and there's a fortune to be made. Just one problem. They've got competition. Local sheriff Doak Ramsey is in the moonshining racket, too. And he's not about to let a bunch of mountain hillbillies--especially a troublemaker like Pike--steal his customers. This isn't just business. This is war..." -- Page [4] cover.
