Book Review: Death Without Company (2006). Craig Johnson.

This is the second Walt Longmire mystery novel, in which an elderly local woman may have been murdered in the local old-folks home. 

 

With all the same excellent literary qualities, main characters along with some new ones, and a new mix of complicated family histories and relationships, long-hidden crimes and conspiracies, and plenty of the same kind of local color and great dialogue that were present in The Cold Dish (the first Walt Longmire novel), Johnson spins another entertaining and high-quality addition to his series of contemporary Western mystery novels.  

 

I really liked it!  But on the other hand, it's two down, 22 (and counting) to go, with the recent release of the latest installment (number 24) in this series.  I'm going to need to pace myself!  Recommended.
