From Red To Dust
Author: Ra Na-Ged
Publisher: Ra Na-Ged
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 145
Book Description
Owen Ward is a former shootist, an outlaw just released from prison hoping to begin a new life as a free and honest man. Journeying to the wild town of Redview in Arizona to reconnect with a family that abhors him, Owen is confronted by both true love, in the form of a prior ‘painted lady’, the mother and ex-prostitute Emma Rabelais, and the violence born from hatred when faced by Boze Neary and his gang of cutthroat cowboys. Owen’s desire to work the red lands as a ranch hand in the countryside is severely tested when Redview’s citizens are harassed and murdered by the Neary Gang. Although the ex-gunslinger attempts to outrun his past profession and leave behind the way of the gun, the redness of the times begs for the help of any good man capable of firing a revolver. Facing choices granted by free will to everyone, Owen must decide his path, balancing along the boundaries of love and hate, hope and faithlessness, by choosing to be redeemed or destroyed by the encompassing violence. The red dust in Arizona was not born from the rocks and stones of the mountains, but by the blood and determination of the peoples who call the land their home.
