DAUGHTER OF THE MORNING STAR Walt Longmire, Book 17

Narrator George Guidall performs Book 17 in the Sheriff Walt Longmire series with all of his masterful storytelling talent on display. The sheriff and his partner-in-justice, Henry Standing Bear, are requested by Tribal Police Chief Lola Long to investigate death threats being sent to her niece, Jaya, a talented high school basketball player. They also look into the earlier disappearance of Jaya's older sister. The story draws listeners' attention to the real-life tragedy of missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls. Guidall's expertise shines as the story jumps back and forth between an intense basketball game and Longmire's interrogation of a suspect. Guidall's deep voice also lures listeners into a mystical subplot woven throughout. A standout in the series for story and performance. E.Q.
