A Christmas novella for fans of the hit drama series LONGMIRE now on Netflix and the New York Times-bestselling series.
Craig Johnson's new novel, The Western Star, will be available from Viking in Fall 2017.
Sheriff Walt Longmire is in his office reading A Christmas Carol when he is interrupted by a ghost of Christmas past: a young woman with a hairline scar and more than a few questions about his predecessor, Lucian Connally. With his daughter Cady and undersherrif Moretti otherwise engaged, Walt's on his own this Christmas Eve, so he agrees to help her.
At the Durant Home for Assisted Living, Lucian is several tumblers into his Pappy Van Winkle's and swears he's never clapped eyes on the woman before. Disappointed, she whispers "Steamboat" and begins a story that takes them all back to Christmas Eve 1988-a story that will thrill and delight the bestselling series' devoted fans.

Praise for Spirit of Steamboat
A nail-biter. Publishers Weekly
Johnson is a born storyteller, and he spins this old-fashioned adventure tale deftly . An extremely pleasant present for fans of this popular series. Booklist
A suspenseful adventure story . Series fans along with adventure and Western readers will raptly devour the details. Library Journal
Like flint to stone, the sparks fly and the humour is brilliant and barbed. . . Fresh Fiction
Praise for Craig Johnson and the Walt Longmire Mystery Series
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. The New York Times Book Review
Johnson's hero only gets better both at solving cases and at hooking readers with age. Publishers Weekly
Like the greatest crime novelists, Johnson is a student of human nature. Walt Longmire is strong but fallible, a man whose devil-may-care stoicism masks a heightened sensitivity to the horrors he's witnessed. Los Angeles Times
Johnson's trademarks [are] great characters, witty banter, serious sleuthing, and a love of Wyoming bigger than a stack of derelict cars. The Boston Globe
The characters talk straight from the hip and the Wyoming landscape is its own kind of eloquence. The New York Times
[Walt Longmire] is an easy man to like. . . . Johnson evokes the rugged landscape with reverential prose, lending a heady atmosphere to his story. The Philadelphia Inquirer
Stepping into Walt's world is like slipping on a favorite pair of slippers, and it's where those slippers lead that provides a thrill. Johnson pens a series that should become a 'must' read, so curl up, get comfortable, and enjoy the ride. The Denver Post
Johnson's pacing is tight and his dialogue snaps. Entertainment Weekly
