Henry's grandmother was a tyrant. She thought if she couldn't teach Henry to live a decent life, at least she could beat the devil out of him. She was strict, tough and demanding. The boy always knew that his grandmother loved him, but the way she went about showing her love just wasn't the way he wanted to see it. At age sixteen, Henry was given the responsibility of another sixteen year old. She was a beautiful Mexican girl that was entrusted to his care because her father was being pursued by the FBI as well as Rick Harrington, a contraband runner. Both of his adversaries are looking for a correct list of names associated with the young lady's father, Senior Menendez. Maria Menendez and Henry Hawkins first run to a mountain castle in the western part of the United States. They don't actually find the castle. The amazing thing is when Henry's grandfather died many years ago, he left that property, where the castle is reported to be located, to Henry with an old Indian named Black Feather as trustee until Henry turns eighteen. Not only does our hero outsmart the EBI and the illegal goods operator, but he frees Senior Menendez and his wife from FBI custody with an amazing and undetectable escape. Both Henry Hawkins and Maria Menendez get authentic badges and papers when they are enrolled as FBI interns.
