Stealin' From The Neighbors in Bloomington, MN

Tommy Lee, not quite eighteen, shows up at a real cow outfit the morning after his high school graduation ceremony. He is long on cowboy skills but short on social skills, and his job on the Cow Creek Ranch will put him in situations he's not prepared to deal with. Wanting to make a hand and be somebody, Tommy throws in with some very experienced older men who aren't afraid to use their knowledge and expertise to gain wealth quickly.There is nothing far fetched about this story - you might even say it's dangerously close to the truth.Stealin' From the Neighbors is a winner of the 2018 New Mexico-Arizona Hillerman Award.
