Description

Walt Longmire and Henry Standing Bear are back, and in the tradition of Wait for Signs and The Highwayman, this action-packed novella set in the Alaska Tundra pushes our heroes to their limits as they face powerful enemies who will do anything to get what they want.

Tooth and Claw follows Walt and Henry up to Alaska as they look for work after they both returned from serving in Vietnam. While working for an oil company in the bitter cold of winter, they soon encounter a ferocious polar bear that seems hell-bent on their destruction. But it's not too long until they realize the danger does not lurk outside in the frozen Alaska tundra, but with their co-workers, who are after priceless treasure and will stop at nothing to get it.

Fans of Craig Johnson will thrill to this pulse-pounding and bone-chilling story of extreme adventure that adds another indelible chapter to the legend of Walt Longmire.

Critical Reviews

Praise for Tooth and Claw

"Spooky fun. . . It all comes to a bloody head."
--Booklist

"[In Tooth and Claw] the action is non-stop in this suspenseful tale of man against nature, and the writing is so tight that the author packs more into 180 pages than many writers squeeze into 300."
--Associated Press

"Craig Johnson is a brilliant writer who deftly blends dynamic fiction with attention-grabbing historical facts and a now beloved reliable cast of characters always leaving the reader to eagerly await the next installment."
--BookTrib

"A chilling novel with all the ingredients needed to keep readers turning pages."
--Kirkus Reviews
