<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>An international hit man and the head of one of the most vicious drug cartels in Mexico has kidnapped Walt Longmire's beloved daughter to auction her off to his worst enemies, of which there are many.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b><b>"It's the scenery--and the big guy standing in front of the scenery--that keeps us coming back to Craig Johnson's lean and leathery mysteries."<br> --<i>The New York Times Book Review</i></b> <p/>Walt journeys into the northern Mexican desert alone to save his daughter Cady, who has been kidnapped by the cartel</b> <p/>Welcome to Walt Longmire's worst nightmare. Winter is creeping closer, but for Sheriff Longmire this one is looking to be harsh in a way to which he is wholly unaccustomed. He has found himself in the remotest parts of the northern Mexican desert, a lawless place where no horse or car can travel, where no one speaks his language or trusts an outsider, far from his friends and his home turf back in Wyoming. But desperate times call for desperate measures. Tomas Bidarte, the head of one of the most vicious drug cartels in Mexico, has kidnapped Walt's beloved daughter, Cady. The American government is of limited help and the Mexican one even less so. Armed with his trusty Colt .45 and a father's intuition, Walt must head into the 110-degree heat of the desert, one man against an army.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>Praise for <i>Depth of Winter</i></b> <p/>"Harrowing . . . Johnson is in fine form."<br> --<i>Publishers Weekly</i> (starred) <p/>"This is a rip-roaring adventure, and if Longmire seems uncannily able to recover from blows to the head and other injuries that would disable a lesser man, well, that's what it takes to defeat this 'monster among monsters.' The sheriff as the spirit of Quixote, riding a mule to the rescue."<br>--<i>Kirkus Reviews <p/></i>Crack dialogue, smart humor, mystical realism, strong sense of place and colorful, complex characters.<br> --<i>Shelf Awareness <p/></i>It's a new setting for Longmire, but old scores are settled in this page-turner fans will love.<i><br></i> --<i>Library Journal<br></i><br>"This is one hell of a book. . . <i>Depth of Winter</i> is a great new novel by the fabulous Craig Johnson.
