  Under an Outlaw Moon is based on the true story of Depression-era bank robbers Bennie and Stella Mae Dickson. She’s a teenage outsider longing to fit in. He’s a few years older and he’s trouble. They meet at a local skating rink and the sparks fly.
  		 
  They marry and Stella dreams of a nice house with a swing out back, while Bennie figures out how to get enough money to make it happen.

The newlyweds celebrate her 16th birthday by robbing a local bank.

Edgar Hoover finds out they crossed state lines, he declares them public enemies number one and two — wanted dead or alive. So much for the good life. The manhunt is on, and there’s little room for them to run.

  Town Marshal "Bloody" Joe Mannion and his close friend, Wells Fargo detective Flint Henry, are on the trail of some of the most vicious killers Mannion has ever faced. Flint is killed so it's up to Bloody Joe to single-handedly retrieve the loot the gang stole from a train. He manages to take down the gang and secure the loot only to find himself facing yet another band of vicious killers who want to lay their own grubby hands on the cash. Bloody Joe, however, has other ideas . . . and this ain't his first rodeo. 
   
   
   
  He manages to hold onto the loot but while fleeing the gang, he's wounded and falls into a ravine. He's ushered to safety by a sister and brother pair of orphans. When the gang tracks Joe to the ranch of Sam and Ilsa McDowell, he finds himself on the run again, with both McDowells as well as the loot. The only thing harder than trying to hold onto the loot is getting Sam and Ilsa to safety—especially when a neighboring rancher sets his lusty sights on the girl. The crooked rancher and his own gang of toughnuts powder Mannion's and the children's trail with their own helping of hot lead.
