It's 1975, and guitarist and singer-songwriter Creed Mason hopes to ride the new wave of Texas-style, Austin-based country music all the way back to the big time. A one-hit wonder whose Nashville career was cut short by a trip to Vietnam, Creed is desperate to get back into the business. His break arrives when a country legend, Luster Burnett, comes out of retirement for one last album and tour in order to pay off a huge debt to the IRS. As Luster's new guitarist and band manager, Creed jumps at the chance of a lifetime. Rosa Martini, a young mob princess from Las Vegas, is found dead just outside Austin. Texas Ranger Captain Hooley Johnson looks into the case, only to find a second young woman murdered - a friend of Rosa's. To complicate things, Rosa's adoptive brother, mob hit man Franco Martini, is spotted nosing around Austin in the wake of the deaths. Soon it appears to Johnson that the mob-related murders and the band are somehow connected. Now not only are the Rangers on Creed's case, the Texas Mafia is after him too.. Book Condition: Very Good.
