It’s always a thrill when the cover for the new book shows -- even after fifteen years, I was curious as to what Viking/Penguin was going to come up with for Next To Last Stand. I knew they were going to have to incorporate the Cassilly Adams painting that’s so prominent to the plot but wasn’t sure how they’d do it. After the serious issues of the three previous books, I figured the beleaguered sheriff was due a happier time, and even though the stakes are still high, the tone is a little lighter with Walt confronting the art world, a place that’s more than a little unknown to him. There’s a lot of the usual characters with a heaping helping of Vic, Henry, Dog and the reappearance of a some of my favorites like Lonnie Little Bird and Barrett Long. Here’s the synopsis: One of the most viewed paintings in American history, Custer’s Last Fight, copied and distributed by Anheuser-Busch at a rate of over two million copies a year, was destroyed in a fire at the 7th Cavalry Headquarters in Fort Bliss, Texas, in 1946. Or was it? When Charley Lee Stillwater dies of an apparent heart attack at the Wyoming Home for Soldiers & Sailors, Walt Longmire is called in to try and make sense of a piece of a painting and a Florsheim shoebox containing a million dollars, sending the good sheriff on the trail of a dangerous art heist. The Next To Last Stand is going through the editing process, with a pub-date of September 22nd and is available for pre-order all over the place, so if you’re so inclined and want to beat the rush, feel free to go out and order a copy.
