Synopsis

JOHNSTONE COUNTRY.
SPEAK YOUR MIND BUT RIDE A FAST HORSE.

As proprietors of the growing D&T Cattle Company, Casey Tubbs and Eli Doolin finally have a business of their own. If they’re going to spend their remaining years corralling cows, at least they can line their own pockets with the fruits of their labor instead of making wealthy ranchers even
wealthier. Unfortunately, the meat market has seen better days and the D&T’s finances are drying up fast—leaving Casey and Eli no choice but to procure cash by any means necessary—usually robbing banks.

Masquerading as old men—older than they already are—Casey and Eli are the most wanted men in the West. Dogged by U.S. marshals and Texas Rangers, the old outlaws slip away time and again, gaining notoriety and being hailed as heroes by folks who have been victimized by corrupt
bankers. Deputy U.S. Marshal Colton Gray—wise to Tubbs’s and Doolin’s tricks—grudgingly respects Casey and Eli’s grit, but won’t let that stop him from bringing them to justice. And if they don’t come peacefully, then Colton will teach them to respect law and order from the barrel of his gun.
