Description

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.

    Another interesting mystery with a good ending. These work best when the main crew is together and they were for the most part. The ending was very satisfying as well.
  • When is the next one?

    I love this series, but this episode dragged and was heavy on history and light on action. Plus, Henry played a very small role and he always livens up the plot. Overall, I was disappointed.
  • Love it.

    Great to read a CJ book that’s action packed and not as heavy as some of the recent one. Great read!

    A really great little mystery for all fans of Sheriff Walt Longmire. I thoroughly enjoyed it and found it difficult to stop reading it at bedtime.

    Enjoyed other books in this series more than this effort. Perhaps Johnson is getting tired of Longmire.
  • Boring.

    Author seems more intent on hitting every politically correct message he can (racism, domestic violence, mistreated criminals, white supreme it’s, etc, etc) than writing an interesting story. Enjoyed prior books by this author, but this one is just plain boring. I mean seriously boring. Like watching paint dry.
