Chascha

Nachalo XX veka. Dzhek Parker i ego sestra Lula ostalis bez ottsa i materi posle togo, kak teh unesla epidemiya ospy. Vmeste so svoim dedom oni otpravlyayutsya v puteshestvie, no na pereprave grabiteli bankov ubivayut deda, a sestru pohischayut. Dzhek chudom spasaetsya i dobiraetsya do blizhayshego goroda, no tam do nego nikomu net dela. Pomoschi zhdat neotkuda, i tolko dva cheloveka soglashayutsya spasti Lulu v obmen na zemlyu Parkerov: ostryy na yazyk karlik Redzhinald po klichke Korotysh, kotoryy metko strelyaet i zol na ves mir, i ogromnyy mogilschik Yustas, syn byvshego raba. Vmeste oni edut v Chaschu, kuda starayutsya ne sovatsya dazhe reyndzhery, po sledam bandy Besposchadnogo Billa, sadista i zhestokogo ubiytsy. Skoro Dzhek poymet, chto v etih zemlyah zhizn nichego ne stoit, a tot, kto prishel syuda, uzhe ne vernetsya prezhnim. Esli, konechno, vernetsya.
