On December 23, 1927, Santa Claus walked into the First National Bank of Cisco, Texas. He was there not to give but to take. What happened next became one of the most notorious crimes in Texas history. A town full of hotels. Lawmen lying in the street. Hostages taken. A bloody manhunt. A man put to death in the electric chair. Santa dragged from jail and hanged by an angry mob.

A story without a moral, as old as time – a tale of good and bad lost in no man’s land.
