Once the newspapers published their first dispatches about Willie and Lolita, rumors spread of a full-scale Indian uprising. It was said that Willie was out to assassinate the President. Someone dubbed him "the mad dog of the Morongos"-and he was hunted like one. Willie covered almost 500 miles on foot, through the Morongo Valley, past Surprise Springs and Deadman's Dry Lake, until he was finally cornered on Ruby Mountain. Earlier, he had shot the girl to keep her from getting caught. On the mountain, he challenged a sure-shooting lawman with an empty rifle, a gesture...
...poolroom tough delivers one of those drunken "I'll-tell-you-what-democracy-is" speeches.

In the hands of Clive, even the philosophical jargon of youth becomes a powerful weapon. "The Turks like things broken and helpless. Destruction is a form of possession," he observes in an Iago-like attempt to dominate the inquisitive colonel. "War is the great sexual game. You could say that castration is the goal. And enemies are always, in a sense, lovers. They experience an interesting comradeship...
