Zusatztext 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 prose! 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.
