Why read it?

1 author picked The Longmire Defense as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I love this latest book in the Walt Longmire series because Craig Johnson explores dark secrets relating to Walt’s grandfather, a storyline we haven’t seen in the first eighteen novels, and it causes Walt to face his family’s past and the uncertain future that comes with his aging.

Like his other novels, the setting is breathtaking, the dialogue is crisp, and the characters are full of life. The book reminded me how much fun it is to spend time in the company of Walt and his ensemble cast.
