Craig Johnson keeps his readers entertained with another Walt Longmire novel, in ANY OTHER NAME.

Longmire gets a request from his old boss, Lucian Connally, a sheriff in Wyoming, to help investigate a suicide of a friend and co-worker. Before Gerald Holman takes his life in a nearby motel, he had been working on several investigations. Is there a link? If so, what could have been so bad that a man of his status would end his life without any indications to why?

That is what Walt Longmire is here to do. To find the answers he will stop at nothing thus fulfilling his reputation. Longmire has many questions that come up in his investigation. The last three files that Holman was working on were missing women reports. He wonders if the three cases could be related, but he can not find a link that connects them.

In further search and questioning of the locals, Longmire gets more town dirt than he bargained for as well as many visits to the local Kmart. Further complicating things, he finds out that there is a professional hit man hired to end his efforts at solving this case. To make things worse, Longmire's daughter is expecting her first child, and expecting her father to be there. With the help of the many of the local sheriff department's men, his under sheriff, Victoria Moretti, and a Cheyenne Nation, Henry Standing Bear, Longmire does not give up and continues to search for and follow leads that bring him up against man and beast alike even in the darkest of night. He has four days to solve this case, to stay alive, and to make it to a very important delivery.

If you love a mystery with the western feel, then you will love The Longmire Mystery series. Johnson did a great job in ANY OTHER NAME with a hint of humor and a captivating story line and all would enjoy reading.
