Rosita's Half-Moon Tequila House — Jack Holland

A sordid tale of general moral decline, debauchery, and oil drilling.The Dry Hole Pump Company is drilling for oil in the middle of the Rio Grande River without any permits as Prunel Duboise slams back one more Dr. Jim and dreams about an island somewhere out in the Pacific where a band of surfing Aborigines awaits his arrival. But that dream will have to wait as a lifetime of adventure is about to be hatched down on the border at Rosita's Half-Moon Tequila House. The Truth About Chupacabras is a humorous tale of border folly that explores the under belly of Laredo, Texas and takes the reader back to the wild days when South Texas chupacabras roamed in packs in downtown Laredo, chupacabra hunters became legendary, wife swapping was rampant, tequila flowed like wine, money flowed like oil, and gold plated belt buckles and Stetson hats were sold in six-packs. Not recommended for those prone to being easily offended by general debauchery and historical recollection. It is recommended this be read with a bottle of tequila or Jim Beam whiskey ready at hand.
