KANSAS CITY, Kan. (PRWEB) June 01, 2015
In “The Bones of Geronimo” (published by Xlibris) author Terry W. Drake creates a pulse pounding tale about the dangerous drug and weapons trade that runs rampant along the Mexican border.
This engrossing read follows the adventures of Jack and Jerry, two ATF patrol agents of Sierra Vista, Arizona, the latter of which is a descendant of Geronimo. These two agents experience the thrill of the chase to capture illegal aliens crossing the border at night. They make numerous excursions into the desert and help in protecting America’s borders from the drug and weapon cartels that threaten to get through every day. On one of their missions, the two apprehend 10 illegal immigrants. Although the capture seems mundane the two are soon embroiled in a scheme that would involve the very bones of Jerry’s legendary ancestor, Geronimo.
