Midnight Cowboys

Two young men from very different backgrounds end up roommates at a state college in west Texas in the latter part of the turbulent sixties. Riki is the black sheep of a wealthy family, on his third and final chance to avoid the draft or disinheritance. His big dream is to be a hot guitarist with a rock band, and he has a weakness for recreational drugs that make him feel better about himself. Jerry is a true son of Bible Belt America, happy to be able to go to college and perhaps rise above the lower middle class level of his family. The two form an unlikely friendship that develops into a deeper bond as they experience drugs, sex, and rock n' roll in their heyday.

When he went in, Dean Dotson sat in one corner of his office, while a stern-faced man in a three-piece suit and rumpled white shirt occupied his desk. Even as unfamiliar with federal agents as Jerry was, he recognized at once that’s what the man had to be.

“Sit down, Mr. Hoffmann,” the man said. “Don’t be nervous. I just need you to answer a few questions for me. Straight answers, simple answers are best. Honest answers, of course. You do understand?”

Jerry nodded, not sure he could force words out of his tight throat. “Yes, sir,” he mumbled.

The questions were almost anti-climactic in their nature. Had he ever used drugs or seen anyone use drugs at the fraternity house? Had he witnessed or taken part in any other activity which might be against the law? How was he recruited to join the fraternity?
