Sheriff Walt Longmire is enjoying a beer when a younger sheriff shows him a photograph of twenty-five armed men standing in front of a Challenger steam locomotive. It transports him back to a time when, fresh from the battlefields of Vietnam, then-deputy
Longmire accompanied his boss, Lucian Connolly, to the annual Wyoming sheriff's junket held on the excursion train known as the Western Star. Armed with his trusty Colt .45 and a paperback of Agatha Christie's Murder on the Orient Express, the young Walt
was ill-prepared for the machinations of twenty-four veteran sheriffs, let alone the cavalcade of curious characters that accompanied them.
Now the photograph—along with an upcoming parole hearing for one of the most dangerous men Walt has encountered—hurtles the sheriff into a head-on collision of past and present, placing those he loves most squarely on the tracks of runaway revenge.

      Narrator George Guidall continues his stellar delivery of Craig Johnson's Walt Longmire series. This installment involves shifts in time between Longmire's current concern, an old nemesis who about to be paroled, and his early years as a sheriff when he returned from the War in Vietnam. Guidall expertly carries listeners back and forth between 1972 and the present day, maintaining the plot's suspense without losing his audience in the 45-year gap. Johnson is a master of dialogue, and Guidall picks up every nuance perfectly. The later installments in this series seem to be taking on a darker tone, which Guidall adapts to accordingly while still managing to nail Johnson's humor. With Johnson and Guidall as a team, first-class entertainment is guaranteed. J.F. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2017, Portland, Maine
