Description

Discover a new hero
Clyde Barr, the drifter with lethal skills, is alone again, wandering the highways of the American West in search of something to believe in. As summer turns to autumn, he heads for the mountains, planning to clear his head and regain his edge with some hunting. But when he runs across an elderly sick mana Ute Indian from a nearby reservationClydes dream of solitude is quickly dashed.

On the reservation, Clyde finds the old mans daughter, Lawana, and grandson, Taylor, as well as a group of menacing bikers called Reapers running wild in the struggling, half-abandoned village. Gripped by the desire to do good in a hard world, Clyde offers to stay on Lawanas ranch to help out until her father is better. As tensions rise between the locals and the Reapers, Clydes efforts to protect the reservation become a fight for his, Lawanas and Taylors lives

A Promise to Kill is an edge-of-the-seat thriller, pushing its no-hold-barred hero to new levels of improvisation and bare-knuckled blunt force.
