About this product

Product Information

Walt Longmire faces an icy hell in this New York Times bestseller from the author of Land of Wolves Well-read and world-weary, Sheriff Walt Longmire has been maintaining order in Wyoming's Absaroka County for more than thirty years, but in this riveting seventh outing, he is pushed to his limits. Raynaud Shade, an adopted Crow Indian rumored to be one of the country's most dangerous sociopaths, has just confessed to murdering a boy ten years ago and burying him deep within the Bighorn Mountains. Walt is asked to transport Shade through a blizzard to the site, but what begins as a typical criminal transport turns personal when the veteran lawman learns that he knows the dead boy's family. Guided only by Indian mysticism and a battered paperback of Dante's Inferno , Walt braves the icy hell of the Cloud Peak Wilderness Area, cheating death to ensure that justice--both civil and spiritual--is served.

The story starts with a pitch-perfect piece of Johnson's trademark scene-setting and then roars off into the wilderness, hardly leaving readers time to catch their breaths...In some ways, this reads like a book-length version of the haunting, harrowing final sequence of Johnson's outstanding debut, The Cold Dish (2005). And when it comes to bad weather, western lore, and a chilling hint of the supernatural, few writers write it better.|9780143120988|, Truly great. Reading Craig Johnson is a treat...[He] tells great stories, casts wonderful characters and writes in a style that compels the reader forward...He has outdone himself with his newest book, Hell Is Empty ...A piece of quality fiction that is built on so many levels that you could read it two or three times and not catch all that Johnson is trying to say...This book deserves the attention of more than just mystery readers.

    Logic and action

    I watched the Netflix series so decided to read his books. Wonderful writer. Vic has a potty mouth but overall an excellent read.

  • This is an amazing book and well worth reading.

    My husband and I were watching Longmire on TV and I started reading all the books starting with the first one. Hell is Empty is one of the Longmire books in a series that I have been reading. It is an excellent book and I really like that it is a soft cover and easy to carry and hold a marker to keep my place. The Longmire books are very interesting and give you a different view of Wyoming and the surround mountains and scenery. I have never been to that part of the United States and the writer, Craig Johnson, lets your imagination open wide. I really enjoy learning about the aspects of a sheriff and his experiences with the job. His experiences with his friend, Cheyenne Nation and the other characters in the book keep you glued to the pages. My one dislike about the book is that it is ...

  • Wyoming's favorite sheriff in another wilderness adventure

    I really like this series and I really like this book. However, in his future books I hope he goes back to giving us some detail of daily life and interactions of a small-town sheriff. This book is almost entirely determined sheriff vs bad guys and the elements with some supernatural help around the edges. That is OK but would like more local color, more local characters, etc in the book to counter-balance the supernatural element. Would also like to know more about the Indians and rez life. But overall I just wish he would write faster, I am ready for the next one.

  • so far i have liked all his books. im sure i will like this also

    i have yet to read it but so far ive liked all his books
