Sinopsis

The closet swallowed his little sister. It really did. And yet, a year later, after it spat her back out, Elmer Warde must lie: I imagined it. I am insane.

This, after people suspected him of kidnapping his own sister.
And after they accused him of trying to murder her.

This is the ironic aftermath of a horror story that gets "solved": the loved ones of the missing person (now missing no more) face a fallout. Elmer's only hope of staying in touch with his little sister seems to be the insanity defense.

But must he settle for a sort-of-happy ending, or can he hope for a happy ending?

A different kind of range war erupts between cowboys and ranchers in The Day the Cowboys Quit from seven-time Spur Award–winning author Elmer Kelton. 
 
The time is 1883, the place is the Texas Panhandle. Cowboys refuse to be stigmatized as drinkers and exploited by the wealthy cattle owners who don't pay liveable wages. Those very same ranchers want to take away the cowboys' right to own cattle because this ownership, the ranchers believe, would lead to thieving. 
 
So the dictum is set: If you're a cowboy, you can't own a cow. When rumors of such legislation travel from wagon to wagon, the cowboys decided to rally and fight for their rights—they gather together and strike.
