In the latest installment of Craig Johnson’s New York Times bestselling Longmire series, Wyoming’s beloved lawman takes on his coldest case yet When Jen, the largest, most complete Tyrannosaurus rex skeleton ever found surfaces in Sherriff Walt Longmire’s jurisdiction, it appears to be a windfall for the High Plains Dinosaur Museum—until Danny Lone Elk, the Cheyenne rancher on whose property … Cheyenne rancher on whose property the remains were discovered, turns up dead, floating face down in a turtle pond. With millions of dollars at stake, a number of groups step forward to claim her, including Danny’s family, the tribe, and the federal government. As Wyoming’s Acting Deputy Attorney and a cadre of FBI officers descend on the town, Walt is determined to find out who would benefit from Danny’s death, enlisting old friends Lucian Connolly and Omar Rhoades, along with Dog and best friend Henry Standing Bear, to trawl the vast Lone Elk ranch looking for answers to a sixty-five million year old cold case that’s heating up fast.

Will read all of this series that are offered at a reasonable price. Very enjoyable.
I really enjoy the Indian-Nations and western Tony Hillerman-like books and this is one of those with turns and twists. Mysteries also intrique me, this one fills that bill too.
This is the second “Longmiire” book I’ve read. I found them a little slow and sometimes confusing, not sure all the time which character the author was speaking of.
Craig Johnson never fails to please-great read! Did it in one sitting!
The modern day Wild West, Walt Longmire is great.
All the Longmire books are well worth the time and so much better than the television series
Always a great read from Craig Johnson
Craig Johnson’s writing style is most entertaining and well-researched. I was a fan of the Longmire TV series and now a bigger fan of this talented writer.
One of my favorites in the Longmire series. I love the characters and their funny witty humor.
