Description

Sheriff Walt Longmire and his soon-to-be married daughter, Cady, hit the race track in an original story from New York Times bestselling author Craig Johnson

Walt Longmire, the longtime sheriff of Absaroka County, Wyoming, has little time to relax. Still recovering from his manhunt chasing down escaped convict and sociopath Reynaud Shade in the Bighorn Mountains, Walt just can’t find the opportunity to sit back and kick off his cowboy boots. His daughter, Cady, is getting married in a few months to the brother of his under-sheriff Victoria Moretti and is in town, helping her dad ‘recuperate’ and to talk about love, life, and weddings.

Meanwhile, the American Indian Days Parade and Pow Wow are attracting tourists and trouble. The pride and joy of Tommy Jefferson’s stables—and the catalyst for his marital problems—the notorious divorce horse, has gone missing, and Jefferson, renowned Indian Relay Racer and one-time meth head, wants him back. With the help of his best friend Henry Standing Bear and his daughter, The Greatest Legal Mind Of Our Time, Walt sets off to the races. This delightful Penguin Group eSpecial includes the twenty-seven page long original story, Divorce Horse, as well as the first chapter from As the Crow Flies.

    Can't believe they would sell this, can't believe I feel for it. 4 bucks for a 40 page short story. They should be ashamed of themselves.

    Divorce the author too....I've enjoyed several of the books in this series but this one makes me angry....it stops with no ending, and no developed story. Bottom of the page indicated there were 4 more pages to "this chapter" but they didn't exist. There were just ads for other books. Also, four more pages would not have made this an actual book. It's time iTunes copyright info and publishing dates were the real dates of publication, not iTunes date and that books offered are clearly and accurately described. That is, a 300 page book doesn't end up being 125 pages of writing and a dozen pages of ads and reviews. We're being ripped off, folks.

    This is NOT a book, it's just the first chapter. DO NOT waste your money.

    It's fun to read a short story that includes my favorite characters from the novels. The timelines are intact so it's like a little glimpse into what's going on with their lives after the last novel and before the next. A little slice of Absaroka County life is how I look at these shorts. I liked it and think the price was okay

    Yes this is a short however totally Craig Johnson and I thoroughly enjoyed this. Until his next book, I've so enjoyed the "Longmire" series on A&E cable!

    Total waste of money, this is like a chapter from a book, maybe a partial chapter. Sorry I wasted my money.

    Total waste of time and money. No plot whatsoever.
