SynopsisThey laughed at Roberto Valdez and then ignored him. But when a dark-skinned man was holed up in a shack with a gun, they sent the part-time town constable to deal with the problem -- and made sure he had no choice but to gun the fugitive down. Trouble was, Valdez killed an innocent man. And when he asked for justice -- and some money for the dead man's woman -- they beat Valdez and tied him to a cross. They were still laughing when Valdez came back. And then they began to die. . ., They laughed at Roberto Valdez and then ignored him. But when a dark-skinned man was holed up in a shack with a gun, they sent the part-time town constable to deal with the problem -- and made sure he had no choice but to gun the fugitive down. Trouble was, Valdez killed an innocent man. And when he asked for justice -- and some money for the dead man's woman -- they beat Valdez and tied him to a cross. They were still laughing when Valdez came back. And then they began to die..., Touching on the themes of the popular FX series Justified featuring U.S. Marshall Raylan Givens, Valdez Is Coming is New York Times bestselling author Elmore Leonard's classic western tale of corruption, justice, and vengeance. Forced to gun down an innocent man, part-time sheriff Roberto Valdez is nearly killed and run out of town when he seeks justice for the dead man's family. But the same townsfolk who laughed at Valdez's dark skin, mocked his decency, and tied him to a cross will find themselves on the wrong side of a gun when the lawman comes back to deliver his own brand of justice.

  • Elmore Leonard Western

    Elmore Leonard is well-known as a mystery writer. However, he also writes Westerns. Who knew? Anyway, Roberto Valdez is called in to put an end to a problem holding itself up in a shack with a gun. He's ultimately forced to squash the problem by gunning the fugitive down. Too bad the fugitive is less a guilty fugitive and more an innocent fellow. It's bad news for Roberto Valdez and even worse news for the guys who refuse to admit they're wrong and beat Valdez up and tie him to a cross - all for asking for true justice and some money for the innocent fellow's widow. Especially when Valdez comes back and they all begin to die. Recommended for Western lovers and those new to Westerns.
