A man who lived and breathed violence!

Western

A stranger comes to town looking for his estranged wife. He finds her running the local girls. He also finds a town and sheriff afraid of their own shadow, scared of a landowner they never see who rules through his rowdy sidekicks. The stranger is a town tamer by trade, and he accepts a $500 commission to sort things out.

VIBE

A lone wolf drifts into a dusty town, a stoic force of nature ready to clean up a mess. Expect simmering tension, sudden bursts of brutal action, and a grim determination to see justice done, no matter the cost.
