Appaloosa (Virgil Cole & Everett Hitch, #1) – by Robert Parker

Posted on 10/15/2024 by Mark

While I was waiting for Spenser, book number 36 at the library, also by Robert Parker, I decided to start another of his series. I have already read all the Jesse Stone and Sunny Randall books, and I like his style of writing.

Appaloosa is a western town where the police Marshall has been shot and killed by a bad guy named Bragg. Cole and Hitch arrive to restore order, and are very savvy with their guns. They are not afraid to use them, and have made a good name for themselves cleaning up towns like Appaloosa. They make sure the laws they create are followed.

I liked the characters of Cole and Hitch as they seem very confident about their abilities, and I liked their background as well.

This one was also made into a movie starring, Ed Harris, Viggo Mortensen, Renew Zellweger, Lance Hendrickson, and Jeremy Irons. Yes, I am going to watch it.

I am looking forward to reading more as there are several more books.
