THE SALTY IGUANA
"A shockingly plausible political thriller that transcends the usual worst-case-scenario about American border security." — BestThrillers.com
"Bill King has successfully captured the spirit of Yellowstone and transported it to South Texas. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED." — BestThrillers.com
This modern-day parable begins with the badly-splintered County Commissioners Court of a remote Texas border county shockingly declaring its independence from both Texas and the United States...and then immediately being formally recognized by the United Nations and nearly sixty foreign countries.
The resulting friction and conflict that follows between the state of Texas and the newly created Revolutionary Republic of Yucatec del Norte—not to mention roiling tensions with the U.S. federal government—will seem not only plausible, but frighteningly realistic.
Even though this political thriller is a work of fiction, it may not be as far-fetched as it first seems.
THE SALTY IGUANA is the second novel in the Doc Gunther Texas Ranger thriller series.

TROUBLE IN VALDEZ COUNTY
Selected as a Finalist for the 2022 Killer Nashville Claymore Award for Best Mystery!
Doc Gunther is a modern-day Texas Ranger assigned to the Texas border with Mexico.
A rural Texas border community, mired in corruption, on a lark elects a twenty-seven-year-old woman with absolutely no law enforcement experience as the county sheriff. This throws a wrench into the plans of the local politicos and their cartel backers.
When the body of a young woman is discovered during the annual Javelina Harvest, an event that brings thousands of tourists to the rural border community, Texas Ranger Doc Gunther is sent over from Laredo to assist the Valdez County Sheriff’s Office in the investigation.
That’s when the pushback begins, pitting neighbor against neighbor—and everyone against the new sheriff—as the cartel and the local power brokers fight to maintain their corrupt status quo.
TROUBLE IN VALDEZ COUNTY is the first novel in the new Doc Gunther mystery-thriller series, which is centered around a modern-day Texas Ranger assigned to the Texas border with Mexico.
