When Rowdy Talbot loses his silver belt buckle?the prize for winning the Crockett County bull-riding championship?to two Frenchwomen he met in a bar, he hops on a plane to the City of Light to get it back, only to tangle with disaffected French revolutionaries, a turquoise-peddling CIA operative, a middle-aged courtesan, and a plot to destroy an American fast-food franchise.
