Death Without Company
When Mari Baroja is found poisoned at the Durant Home for Assisted Living, Sheriff Walt Longmire is drawn into an investigation that reaches fifty years into the mysterious woman’s past. Her connections to Wyoming's Basque community, the luctrative coal-bed methane industry, and the personal life of the previous sheriff lead to a complex web of half-truths and assumed alliances.
Aided by his friend Henry Standing Bear, Deputy Victoria Moretti, and newcomer Santiago Saizarbitoria, Sheriff Longmire must connect the specter of the past to the present to find the killer among them.

Craig Johnson
In the wind-cut high plains of Wyoming, justice doesn’t come with a badge and a booming voice—it comes with quiet conviction, a deep sense of place, and a stubborn refusal to look away. That’s where Craig Johnson sets his stories, and it’s where his voice has found a lasting home. Best known for the Longmire series, Johnson has carved out a distinct space in modern Western crime fiction—not with flashy gimmicks, but with layered characters, stark landscapes, and a kind of storytelling that lets silence speak as loudly as gunfire.
