The Salty Iguana

 "The Salty Iguana is one of the year's best thrillers." — BestThrillers.com

"King writes taut, tense action scenes [that] will keep readers on edge throughout ... presents a portrait of a modern-day West that will appeal to fans of Yellowstone." — Kirkus Reviews

"A shockingly plausible political thriller that transcends the usual worst-case-scenario about American border security. 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 and increasingly-hostile Revolutionary Republic of Yucatec del Norte—not to mention roiling tensions with the U.S. federal government—will seem both eerily realistic, and frighteningly plausible.

Even though this story 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.
