Suspense | Historical
Territorial Marshals Virgil Cole and Everett Hitch are back
in Appaloosa, where their work enforcing the law has been
exceptionally quiet. All that is about to change. An ominous
storm rolls in, and along with it a band of night riders
with a devious scheme, who show up at the Rio Blanco camp,
where a three-hundred-foot bridge is under construction.
Appaloosa’s Sheriff Sledge Driskill and his deputies are the
first to respond, but as the storm grows more threatening,
news of troubles at the bridge escalate and the Sheriff and
his deputies go missing.
Virgil and Everett saddle up to sort things out but before
they do the hard drinking, Beauregard Beauchamp arrives in
Appaloosa with his Theatrical Extravaganza troupe and the
promise of the best in lively entertainment west of the
Mississippi. With the troupe comes a lovely and mysterious
fortune-teller who is set on saving Everett from imminent
but indefinable danger.
The trouble at the bridge, the missing lawmen, the new
arrivals, and Everett’s shoot-out in front of Hal’s Café
aren’t the only things on Cole and Hitch’s plate as a gang
of unsavory soldiers ease into town with a shady alibi,
shadier intentions, and a soon-to-be-discovered wake of
destruction.
As clouds over Appaloosa continue to gather, things get much
worse for Cole and Hitch...
