Publisher Description
The eighteenth novel in the beloved New York Times bestselling Longmire series
The hit drama Longmire is now streaming on Paramount+
What if you woke up lying in the middle of the street in the infamous town of Fort Pratt, Montana, where thirty young Native boys perished in a tragic 1896 boarding-school fire? What if every person you encountered in that endless night was dead? What if you were covered in blood and missing a bullet from the gun holstered on your hip? What if there was something out there in the yellowed skies, along with the deceased and the smell of ash and dust, something the Northern Cheyenne refer to as the Éveohtsé-heómėse, the Wandering Without, the Taker of Souls? What if the only way you know who you are is because your name is printed in the leather sweatband of your cowboy hat, and what if it says your name is Walt Longmire . . . but you don’t remember him?
In Hell and Back, the eighteenth installment of the Longmire series, author Craig Johnson takes the beloved sheriff to the very limits of his sanity to do battle with the most dangerous adversary he’s ever faced: himself.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
A dogged sheriff can’t remember who he is in this haunting whodunit. Walt Longmire doesn’t actually know he’s Walt Longmire when he wakes up battered and bloody in the middle of a strange small town. But soon, he’s drawn into the Twin Peaks–like place, full of suspicious townies that aren’t half as scary as the community’s abandoned boarding school for Native American boys. This book in Craig Johnson’s long-running Walt Longmire series is steeped in a surreal blend of indigenous lore and Western gothic gloom. We appreciated the otherworldly settings as Walt bounces between past and present, unraveling the mystery of this unusual place and his own identity. Hold on tightly as Longmire fights an enemy that may not be of this world.
