Itâ€™s holiday season in Absaroka County and Sheriff Walt Longmire gets personal in this delightful collection of four short stories from New York Timesâ€“bestselling author Craig Johnson.,Readers glimpse a softer side of Sheriff Walt Longmire as he grapples with the death of his wife, Martha, and his sometimes turbulent but ever-loving relationship with his daughter, Cady. In these four storiesâ€”â€œMinisterial Aid,â€ â€œSlick-Tongued Devil,â€ â€œToys for Tots,â€ and â€œUnbalancedâ€ (three of which have been sent to Johnsonâ€™s fans over the years in the authorâ€™s â€œPost-itâ€ e-mails)â€”Walt is alternately at his best and his worst. He helps a somewhat delusional elderly victim of domestic abuse while sporting a bathrobe and a mean hangover on New Yearâ€™s Day. Heâ€™s sidelined by grief when his wifeâ€™s obituary reappears in the paper and thereâ€™s an unexpected knock on his door two days before Christmas. He strives to help even those who donâ€™t want it when he picks up a young female hitchhiker, and heâ€™s forced into some last-minute Christmas shopping by the Greatest Legal Mind of Our Time, during which he might just end up saving a young Navy chaplainâ€™s Christmas.,Full of Longmireâ€™s dry wit and good heart, Christmas in Absaroka County is a holiday must-have for every Longmire and Craig Johnson fan, and it also includes the first chapter of The Cold Dish, the first novel in the Walt Longmire Mystery Series.
