Long Shot

By Regis DeArza

The Marines are taking baby steps toward opening all of their combat military occupational specialties to Women Marines. Andrea Cassidy has a lifelong dream of serving in the Marine Corps. She is a sharpshooter of exceptional quality. A concept and a desire are on converging courses.
Ryder Myles was a victim of illicit drug abuse. He grew up in Texas foster homes. As an adult, in California, he is on the road to overcoming his childhood misfortunes. His buddy, Butch Finette, another casualty of the drug culture, isn't fairing as well. Misplaced loyalties have their consequences.
Bernard "Barney" Mason was a Marine Sniper during the Vietnam War. He's got some age on him now, but he can still make the long shot.
Austin, Texas, isn't what it used to be when Sergeant Henry Cassidy joined the police force. Nothing stays the same for forever.
Ronnie Harrigan is a genuine cowboy and a Texas Highway Patrol Trooper. Dodging the highway patrol is crucial to the success of transporting illegal narcotics. "Don't mess with Texas" is more than a slogan.
North Texas bears witness to an old battleground where buffalo hunters and Indians fought in 1874. A modern-day showdown is in the making.
Did I neglect to mention romance? It's all here.
