The Legend of the Black Rose A TRUE STORY: In the 1960s, star-crossed lovers fall in love on the Spanish Trail, too young to imagine the consequences... Martinez had me looking straight down the barrel of his rifle before I could close my truck door and get to the garden gate. I froze just as I was, half-turned. Rosa was screaming my name behind her Papa inside the front door, and I could hear her mother yelling at her and restraining her. "Get off my land, Bobby, or I'll call the police!" Martinez commanded. "It isn't her fault!" I shouted straight down the sidewalk because I had no other choice. "Bobby!" she was screaming. "Papa dont shoot Bobby!" Martinez discharged the rifle where he stood, above my head. That settled it. Raising my hands, I slowly backed into the cab and got in. She screamed until she heard the GMC start up; then, realizing I was still alive, it stopped."
