Cole Haskins and Bunny Beaumont are crazy in love, which is sometimes good for their careers robbing banks, sometimes not. When even Cole’s lightning draw and Bunny’s steel-nerved driving doesn’t keep them from blowing a big heist in south Texas and have to split to Mexico to hide and heal up, they end up losing money on an armored car robbery that wrecks a town, but luck into an embezzler about to be killed by a bounty hunter. They save him—for a stiff price—but by the time they smuggle him back into the USA on the flying chopper built by two nutso biker/smugglers, things are getting way too loose. They end up in a hostage hole-up, then get chased to a cliff by the law like Thelma and Louise. And through all the hot-wheeling, lead-slingin’, and wheeler-dealin’ they never miss a chance to crack a joke or smooch each other silly. A richly comic crime novel with a unique twist, it’s also a cock-eyed romance. You’re going to remember Bunny and Cole.

Linton Robinson was a free-lance writer for many decades, working for top national magazines and winning awards for articles in urban weeklies in the American West, ranging from Seattle's Weekly, Stranger, Rocket, and Sun to San Diego's Weekly, Revolt, and City Beat. Those years took their toll. One of his more successful (or at least cult- idolized) columns was “The Weekend Warrior”, started up at the Weekender in San Diego and eventually synicated as far north as Vancouver and as far west as Denver. In keeping with his new career as a novelist, Robinson has turned many humor columnists green with envy by figuring out how to convert The Warrior into a work of allegedly real fiction. If you didn't like “The Weekend Warrior”, well, to hell with you. What do you know, anyway, philistine? If you did like it, however, you're very fortunate. And not just for being wise, perceptive, and able to read between the lines—there are more works available from this unquestionably talented, questionably domesticated writer.
