From Flesh and Blood to Whisper and Legend.
At the turn of the twentieth century, the Apache Kid was a name whispered in fear along the United States-Mexico border. Outlaw, warrior, and legend, he vanished in 1900 after a decade of bloodshed, accused of murders, raids, and kidnappings that spread his infamy across two countries. But as stories of his death circulate, the truth remains buried in the rugged mountains of northern Mexico.
As Mexico erupts into revolution in 1910, and Pancho Villa's war threatens to tear the country apart, Kid's legend grows. Rumors swirl of his secret rancho in Sonora, where he hides with his family, visiting his people in San Carlos Reservation under cover of night. Others claim he died of tuberculosis, his body discovered in a cave. The White Mountain Apache, who knew him best, believe he lives on, watching as his people disappeared from the Sierra Madre, swallowed by the encroaching world of ranchers, miners, and soldiers.
Award-winning author W. Michael Farmer's The Apache Kid: Vanished Outlaw follows the intertwined fates of Kid and those who seek to uncover his story. From hidden tribes to American invaders, from revolutionaries to fading cultures, this novel explores the shifting sands of identity, survival, and the final chapter of the untamed Southwest.
When legends fade and history is rewritten, can the truth ever be known? Or will the Apache Kid remain a shadow, lost to time?
