Past lives. Dead outlaws. Warm beer. All these await Charley Stone in the afterlife -- and life after death ain't quite what he expected. Charley is reunited with two old friends -- a rifleman named Jake and a philosophizing barkeep, Cole -- as well as a band of ruthless enemies from lives past. Somewhere in the harsh drylands lie the keys to Charley's forgotten past -- a troubled former life as Ben Kane, a Texas Ranger whose ruthless justice sent many outlaws to Hell long ago. Part action movie, part philosophical musing, Hell is Texas is a gothic western that redefines the ghost story -- a harsh tale of redemption, rediscovery, and revenge from beyond the grave.
