The next gritty, gun-slinging entry in the New York Times best-selling series, displaying itinerant lawmen Virgil Cole and Everett Hitch. Territorial Marshals Virgil Cole and Everett Hitch are back in Appaloosa, where their work enforcing the law has been remarkably quiet. All the is going to change. An ominous surprise rolls in, and along with it a band of nighttime riders with a devious plan, who show up at the Rio Blanco camp, where a three-hundred-foot bridge is under building. Appaloosa's Sheriff Sledge Driskill and his deputies will be the first to react, but as the surprise grows more threatening, information of troubles at the bridge escalate and the Sheriff and his deputies go missing. Virgil and Everett saddle up to type things out but before they are doing the hard taking in, Beauregard Beauchamp arrives in Appaloosa with his Theatrical Extravaganza troupe and the guarantee of the best in exciting entertainment west of the Mississippi. Along with the troupe comes a pleasant and incomprehensible fortune-teller who is set on keeping Everett from imminent but indefinable hazard. The difficulty at the bridge, the missing lawmen, the new arrivals, and Everett's shoot-out in front of Hal's Café aren't the one things on Cole and Hitch's dish as a gang of unsavory troops ease into town with a shady alibi, shadier motives, and a soon-to-be-discovered wake of destruction. As clouds over Appaloosa continue to accumulate, things get much worse for Cole and Hitch....
