Caprock, Texas, is a sleepy cow town until oil is discovered in the
1920s. Suddenly thousands of people stream in to find their
fortune. Some are honest folk like Elise and Victor Underwood, who
pray for a little luck with their daily bread. But too many are
two-bit swindlers. And then there's frontier mobster Big Boy
Daugherty. Sheriff Dave Buckalew faces a whole different set of
circumstances as his town springs to life -- in good and
not-so-good ways.
The town of Caprock is loosely based on Crane in West Texas,
where Kelton grew up, although Crane did not exist until the oil
boom.
Honor at Daybreak represents a departure for Kelton. There is no
single dominant figure. Although Sheriff Buckalew represents a
quiet strength that binds his town together, this is a book in
which an entire community joins together to save itself.
