Last Ride is a good western for a change of pace and cleanses the palette. Colton Emory who, returning home one day, found his wife Martha brutally beaten, stabbed, and her throat cut. Who or why was a complete mystery to Colton. In desperation Colton posts a rather large bounty for the capture of the guilty party(s) dead or alive. This brings in bounty hunters from all over. The bigger issue is that the culprit happens to be the son of a big rancher and land owner who pretty much also owns the town. As the bounty hunters roll in they are identified by the rancher’s hands and sent packing. On the other side of town a father and mother are gunned down in front of the daughter who manages to escape. The daughter flees to a friend of her father who used to be a bounty hunter. Ex-bounty hunter is also in need of money to save his farm. See where this is going? This is a good story of revenge and survival. The characters are well-developed and the action is pretty good once all parties get together.
