Criminal Investigation Novel by Craig Johnson - Examining/Providing Giveaway Details
In a captivating departure from the usual Wyoming setting, Craig Johnson's latest novel, "Tooth and Claw: A Longmire Story", transports readers to the icy wilderness of Alaska. Sheriff Walt Longmire finds himself face-to-face with an unusual adversary - a homicidal polar bear.
The story, set during the winter solstice, follows a U.S. Geological Survey Team conducting core testing. Longmire, working security for an Alaskan oil company, encounters an enormous polar bear behaving erratically. The bear's uncharacteristic aggression sets the stage for a thrilling adventure, filled with suspense and mystery that is characteristic of Johnson’s writing style.
Vic Moretti, Walt's undersheriff and girlfriend, does not appear in the novel due to the time frame. However, Walt's witty banter with his friend Henry Standing Bear, and their comfortable black humor, prevent the novel from becoming too dark.
The novel also features a battle between nature and man as Walt and Henry struggle to survive being stranded on the ice while protecting what's left of their team. They also take on the responsibility of protecting an orphaned bear cub from the homicidal polar bear.
