[edit] Streets of Laredo

Though Blue Duck is long since dead at the time this novel takes place, this volume does some retconning regarding his appearance in Lonesome Dove, making the pyromaniac Mox Mox one of his associates, having Blue Duck leave Lorena Wood Parker in his custody and, later, having to stop him from burning her alive so he can use her to lure Augustus McCrae into a trap. In the film, a flashback scene is included, in which Blue Duck is played by Bill Gribble.
