"This was a great story taking Walt Longmire back to Vietnam in the 1960's along with the present day story of trying to solve the murder of a Vietnamese girl in rural Wyoming. Once again, the characters are well described and reflect Wyoming to the fullest! "
— Linda (4 out of 5 stars)
“An insightful look at various forms of racism, human trafficking, and confronting your own prejudices.”
— Detroit Free Press“[In] Johnson’s stellar fourth mystery to feature Wyoming sheriff Walt Longmire, Walt responds to a call that leads to…disturbing links to a California human trafficking ring as well as to his own past as a military inspector in Vietnam. Vivid war flashbacks give a glimpse of a younger but no less determined Walt. Full of crackling dialogue, this absorbing tale demonstrates that Longmire is still the sheriff in town.”
— Publishers Weekly (starred review)“Juxtaposing the current investigation against flashbacks to Vietnam, Johnson is able to reveal several new layers to the fascinating character of the aging, kindly, homespun sheriff and his best friend, Henry Standing Bear, who served with him in Vietnam. This series has distinguished itself so far with its rich portrayal of human relationships and daily life in small-town Wyoming. Those characteristics are well in evidence here, but the addition of the vivid and powerful Vietnam scenes provides a welcome jolt of frisson.”
— Booklist" Loving George Guidall reading this series!!!!! "
— Lladroluv, 2/12/2014" This had the two voices/flashback thing. I feel like that gets in the way of the story. I didn't like it in the new C.J. Box book either. These Walt Longmire books keep getting shorter and shorter, but I do still enjoy them. "
— ccccurt, 2/11/2014" Darker yet sweeter (yes that is possible!) than others in the series. Johnson captures a subtle essence of modern Am. Indian culture as well as it's humor and resilience unusually well, for a wacicu (white man)! "
— Linda, 2/9/2014" Another good story - although I did not enjoy the Vietnam segments very much. "
— Carol, 1/31/2014" This series really is fantastic. They're just pseudo-western detective stories, with Native American stuff as well; think Tony Hillerman with less focus on the Native American aspects (most of the time at least). But they're great. "
— Will, 1/29/2014" The Dark HorseThe Dark Horse "
— Nancy, 1/28/2014" Another great and absorbing mystery. I liked how he weaved the Vietnam mystery into the story. He does such an incredible job with dialogue. Very readable and enjoyable!! "
— Emily, 1/26/2014" The Lone Ranger and Tonto in Viet Nam and Wyoming. "
— Tony, 1/15/2014" He just gets better with eachy book. "
— Virginia, 12/29/2013" I liked this book but it was not a favorite. I still think it is well worth reading. I thank Craig Johnson for every Walt Longmire book and will keep reading the series as long as it lasts. Please keep them coming Mr. Johnson! "
— Sharon, 12/26/2013" Such memorable characters, such a remarkable way the author has of landing you in alternate times/experiences and characters that become part of you. I love this author and I love Walt Longmire. "
— Kim, 11/28/2013" Another good "Longmire" series story. Not my favorite but still enjoyed it. "
— Kevin, 11/23/2013" The Walt Longmire books fit me like a favorite pair of jeans. They are easy to pick up or set down depending upon the demands of life. No matter what they carry me away from where I am and completely engross me. "
— Amanda, 6/23/2013" This series is consistently good, thought provoking and at times laugh out loud funny. "
— John, 10/9/2012" While I don't ordinarily like flash-backs as a literary device, it seems to work here. for those of us who remember the Vietnam era, or some of those who came home, I think this will resonate. Not his best work, but still good. "
— Diana, 9/23/2012" One of the better one in the Walt Longmire series. I liked it too. I'm not sure it merits four stars though. "
— Ray, 7/12/2012" enjoyed the mystery within a mystery "
— Jcarlson, 7/1/2012" It is a well written novel. After being disappointed in my first read book by Craig Johnson, I feel that each book in the series have gotten better & better. "
— Ron, 6/9/2012" Really enjoying Craig Johnson's Walt Longmire series. Book 4, Another Man's Moccasins, didn't disappoint... "
— Tom, 4/25/2012" George Guidall, my very favorite narrator of audiobooks. "
— Susie, 10/23/2011" This series really is fantastic. They're just pseudo-western detective stories, with Native American stuff as well; think Tony Hillerman with less focus on the Native American aspects (most of the time at least). But they're great. "
— Will, 6/6/2011" Sheriff Walt Longmire has the best posse of sidekicks I've ever run into. This series has a wonderful sense of place and strong characterization. This book featured a device I like - a story in the past that laps into the present. "
— Carolyn, 5/1/2011" Entertaining. Sometimes difficult to follow because two different time periods are incorporated into story. "
— Edie, 4/14/2011" This was a much better book than Book 1, that I read a few months ago. I like the characters a lot. They have lots of issues, but they're just normal people. <br/> <br/>Good book to pass time. <br/> "
— Daniel, 2/5/2011" Interesting use of flashbacks to Veit Nam. You would have had to live in Wyoming to appreciate some of the humor. "
— Bruce, 11/3/2010" It was entertaining, but I still think that The Cold Dish was the best of the series. But as long as he keeps writing them, I'll keep reading them. "
— Joe, 9/7/2010" I would like to thank Melinda for introducing me to this series. "
— Sarah, 8/28/2010" The best one yet. Love all the characters - Walt, Vic, Ruby, Sancho, and of course, my favourite, Henry. <br/>And the way Johnson describes the Wyoming country side - awesome.<br/> "
— Judy, 8/10/2010" He just gets better with eachy book. "
— Virginia, 8/10/2010" The Walt Longmire books fit me like a favorite pair of jeans. They are easy to pick up or set down depending upon the demands of life. No matter what they carry me away from where I am and completely engross me. "
