Ned Blessing: The True Story of My Life

Alone on "Executioner`s Row," Ned Blessing is a haggard, old cowboy and former sheriff. With nothing more than reflections on a life that`s been filled with danger and excitement, he marks his time waiting and hoping that the man responsible for his imprisonment makes an appearance before the hangman does. With only a few days left to live, Blessing recounts his unbelievable life story. We meet Ned as a young boy heading west with his father, Anthony. We see the brutal shooting of Ned`s father by the notorious Bruto Half-Tongue and Ned`s enslavement by the Commancheros, a dangerous band of Mexican outlaws. While in Mexico, Ned meets Crescencio, a healer and visionary who will watch out for Ned the rest of his life. We also meet the beautiful Jilly Blue, the love of Ned`s life, and the ruthless Tors Buckner, Ned`s worst enemy. With just days between Ned and the noose, Ned has nothing to gain and no time to lose.
