The new novel in Craig Johnson’s beloved New York Times bestselling Longmire series. Walt is still suffers traumatic physical and psychological damage from his battle with Tomas Bidarte in the preceding installment. A rancher in Absaroka County hires shepherds to assist with his large flocks. When one of the men is found dead, it falls to Walt Longmire to ascertain whether it was suicide or murder.
It appears a wolf has attacked sheep on the high prairie Basque country of Absaroka; troubling because there have been no known wolves in the county for decades. Walt is more introspective in this outing as he unravels this mystery, burrowing more into his inner self and welcoming the presence of a lone wolf roaming the mountains around Durant. Is this animal real or just of a figment of Walt’s wounded imagination? How does this wonderful creature fit in the scheme of things?
Attempting to recover from his harrowing experiences in Mexico, in Land of Wolves Wyoming Sheriff Walt Longmire is neck deep in the investigation of what could or could not be the suicidal hanging of a shepherd. With unsettling connections to a Basque family with a reputation for removing the legs of Absaroka County sheriffs, matters become even more complicated with the appearance of an oversize wolf in the Big Horn Mountains to which Walt finds himself feeling more and more empathetic.
