An Obvious Fact
An Obvious Fact: A Longmire Mystery | Craig Johnson
25 posts | 20 read | 9 to read
In the 12th novel in the New York Times bestselling Longmire series, the basis for the hit Netflix orginal series Longmire, Walt, Henry, and Vic discover much more than they bargained for when they are called in to investigate a hit-and-run accident involving a young motorcyclist near Devils Tower In the midst of the largest motorcycle rally in the world, a young biker is run off the road and ends up in critical condition. When Sheriff Walt Longmire and his good friend Henry Standing Bear are called to Hulett, Wyomingthe nearest town to America's first national monument, Devils Towerto investigate, things start getting complicated. As competing biker gangs; the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms; a military-grade vehicle donated to the tiny local police force by a wealthy entrepreneur; and Lola, the real-life femme fatale and namesake for Henry's '59 Thunderbird (and, by extension, Walt's granddaughter) come into play, it rapidly becomes clear that there is more to get to the bottom of at this year's Sturgis Motorcycle Rally than a bike accident. After all, in the words of Arthur Conan Doyle, whose Adventures of Sherlock Holmes the Bear won't stop quoting, "There is nothing more deceptive than an obvious fact." From the Hardcover edition.

I'm enjoying listening to this in my car. It has one of my favorite readers, George Guidall.

Caught up on Sheriff Longmire's escapades. Does not make me want to visit Sturgis at all, though!

"I think he's stupid enough to open a wholesale stupid store and sell franchises." More gold from Vic, which really isn't a surprise. ? #vicmoretti #anobviousfact #craigjohnson

Nobody has a way with words quite like Victoria Moretti. 😂 (Except for Debra Morgan, who is also one of my faves of all time, so clearly, there's a theme going there.) #anobviousfact #craigjohnson #vicmoretti

Just a little peek at Walt and Cady's pitch-perfect banter. (A transformer at my house blew, so I might not get a lot more posted for #fictionalfathersday, since my phone's battery life is garbage.) 🙄 #anobviousfact #waltlongmire #cadylongmire #craigjohnson

I love pretty much everything about the Longmire series, but the thing that grabbed me almost immediately was the beautifully-drawn relationship between Walt and his daughter Cady. It's warm and funny and heartfelt, but can be tense and combative, too - which is to say, it's so real.

It's also so much fun to see the rugged lawman turn into a marshmallow over his baby girl. 💖 #anobviousfact #waltlongmire #craigjohnson #fictionalfathersday

Not the strongest entry in the Longmire series, but still entertaining. I love these characters and the setting. My version of comfort reading.

Added another autographed book to my collection! Craig Johnson is a very humorous speaker and he's a fellow native West Virginian. Now I need to catch up on the prior Longmire mysteries before I can read this one! Does the TBR pile ever go down?

Time for a little love for a certain Absaroka County sheriff and his pals. "It is a beautiful day at the Red Pony and continual soirée."
