About this listen

 A lazy evening wind bends the sage as it passes. A lone coyote greets the dusk with a plaintive howl. Suddenly, the nearby canyon rings with the sound of echoing gunfire. There's been trouble for some time now, even before the stranger rode in. Cattle are disappearing. Good men have been killed.

Aroused by the distant thunder of rifles, the few riders that are loyal to the lady break for their horses. A stranger mounts his horse too, and becomes one of the riders heading toward the sound of the guns. Beliefs and passions become intertwined with betrayal and violence in this classic adventure tale.

Amateur Performers

Could not finish this. I'm more of a Louis L'Amour fan but wanted to try Zane Grey. The dialogue is stinted and does not flow as well as the narrative; however, I could have finished the story if the actors had made it believable. Their performance of the story is void of emotion and acting expertise. They all sounded detached from the characters and obviously not prepared to embrace their roles. A very cheap production.
