This Week at Book View Café: La Desperada

This week Book View Café is pleased to present Patricia Burroughs's La Desperada.

A desperate woman fleeing for her life holds a cold-blooded murderer at gunpoint and says, "Take me with you."

The tortured outlaw's quest for vengeance joins with her bid for freedom, and a tale of grand passion and wild adventure unfurls. Set in the Texas and New Mexico of Billy the Kid, their love and sacrifice become the stuff of legend, the legend of "La Desperada."

Originally titled What Wild Ecstasy [Kensington Books], this book captivated readers and inspired the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences/Nicholl Award-winning screenplay, "Redemption." Novel and script are available together for the first time.

Award-winning screenwriter and novelist Patricia Burroughs loves dogs, books, movies, and football. A lifelong Anglophile, she treasures her frequent travels in the British Isles researching current science fiction/fantasy writing projects. She and her high school sweetheart husband are living happily ever after in their hometown of Dallas, Texas.
