Hard to find just one word to describe this book. There were parts that made me laugh out loud (woke up the hubby) and other parts that had me so enthralled that I couldn't put it down until I finished that section and other parts that had me in tears. Craig Johnson writes so well! This was the first of his books that I've read and I am now moving onto Death Without Company. Loved the TV series but the books are even better!!! Hope he continues writing about Longmire and company!
