Southwest of Heaven

In Heaven's Gold, we met Wilson Young, legendary bank robber from Texas. In Southwest of Heaven, we meet Young's son, Willis. Years have passed, and now it's 1924. Willis Young is back from France, a broken man. As a World War I flying ace, he has seen enough killing and destruction to last him a lifetime. He has lost his zest for living. Upon his return from the war, Willis is reunited with his former mechanic-now a prosperous wildcat oil driller. The two set out on a crazy scheme to drill for oil on Willis's land-two hundred thousand acres of the most worthless soil in the hell on earth that is West Texas. But then the well strikes water-and Willis undergoes a transformation that changes not only his life, but the lives of everyone around him.
