The sixteenth novel in the beloved New York Times bestselling Longmire series finds the sheriff chasing down the whereabouts of an iconic American painting
The hit drama Longmire is now streaming on Paramount+
One of the most viewed paintings in American history, Custer's Last Fight, copied and distributed by Anheuser-Busch at a rate of over two million copies a year, was destroyed in a fire at the 7th Cavalry Headquarters in Fort Bliss, Texas, in 1946. Or was it? When Charley Lee Stillwater dies of an apparent heart attack at the Wyoming Home for Soldiers & Sailors, Walt Longmire is called in to try and make sense of a piece of a painting and a Florsheim shoebox containing a million dollars, sending the good sheriff on the trail of a dangerous art heist.
Rezension:
Praise for Craig Johnson and the Walt Longmire Mystery Series
It's the scenery and the big guy standing in front of the scenery that keeps us coming back to Craig Johnson's lean and leathery mysteries. The New York Times Book Review
Johnson's hero only gets better both at solving cases and at hooking readers with age. Publishers Weekly
Like the greatest crime novelists, Johnson is a student of human nature. Walt Longmire is strong but fallible, a man whose devil-may-care stoicism masks a heightened sensitivity to the horrors he's witnessed. Los Angeles Times
Johnson's trademarks [are] great characters, witty banter, serious sleuthing, and a love of Wyoming bigger than a stack of derelict cars. The Boston Globe
The characters talk straight from the hip and the Wyoming landscape is its own kind of eloquence. The New York Times
[Walt Longmire] is an easy man to like. . . . Johnson evokes the rugged landscape with reverential p rose, lending a heady atmosphere to his story. The Philadelphia Inquirer
Stepping into Walt's world is like slipping on a favorite pair of slippers, and it's where those slippers lead that provides a thrill. Johnson pens a series that should become a 'must' read, so curl up, get comfortable, and enjoy the ride. The Denver Post
Johnson's pacing is tight and his dialogue snaps. Entertainment Weekly
