Kindness Goes Unpunished by Craig Johnson

"A Walt Longmire Mystery"

As much as I admire Walt and Bear and Viv, there hasn't been much variation in the plot sequence of these books.  In Kindness Goes Unpunished, Walt and Bear drive to Philadelphia to visit Cady (Walt's sister) and to deliver Bear's collection of old photos to a museum.  Naturally, as soon as they arrive, all hell breaks loose - Cady is injured in a fall and is comatose in the hospital.  The criminal conspiracy goes deep within the DA's office, with ADAs and crack dealers working together.  Walt, with the help of the Philadelphia police and Vic's entire family, unravels the case just as Cady comes out of her coma.

I like the plot - the criminals are original, but it's the same thing with Walt & Bear . . . Walt gets involved with a person who is endangered, must catch the criminal, who tries to & almost does kill him.  Then Bear comes in to assist, Walt sees the ghost indians, and they finally catch the bad guys.  The only real difference here is that they meet Vic's family, and Cady will be returning to Wyoming with Walt.
