Bennie and Stella are newlyweds during the Depression era. She isn't legally old enough to get married so she lies about her age. Stella is desperate to fit it. Bennie is trouble from the get-go. His first act as a married man is to rob a bank. But love is love and these two are in love hook, line and sinker. J. Edgar Hoover declares them public enemy #1 and #2. Bennie and Stella are more like Robin Hood than Bonnie and Clyde. They are both wanted, dead or alive. Under An Outlaw Moon,a fiction novel by Dietrich Kalteis, is a story about loveable criminals and a seriously unlovable head of the FBI.
