Smoke and Blood

By Nicholas Salerno III

Smoke and Blood

A Nicholas Salerno III Original Screenplay

IN A TOWN WITHOUT LAW...
...a father's vengeance rides like a ghost.

Jim Sheppard strides into Cartahenia with only a horse, a pistol, and the memory of a son. But what he finds is something darker. Deputy Strong hides power behind a crooked badge. Dirty Jack rules with silver and bullets. And Che Che-Joseph's widow-holds secrets worth killing for.

As the clock ticks toward High Noon, the town splits-law and outlaws, lies and half-truths. With a single warning, it all ignites. Guns blaze. Blood runs in the red dust. And when smoke clears, only one truth remains:

You don't choose sides. Sides choose you.
