"THE LAST DAKOTA COWBOY centers on a rough-and-tumble sheriff dealing with a broken marriage based on a near fatal attraction. At the same time, the oil boom brings big changes and shady characters to his small Dakota town. Heartfelt, full of the hard history of this country, and action packed, it’s a natural for the legion of fans of YELLOWSTONE and MADISON and the LONGMIRE series.”—Pete Fromm, five-time winner of the Pacific Northwest Booksellers Literary Award
In a small North Dakota town, Sheriff Ray Adams faces the dangers of a changing world where bigotry and violence are fueled by social media. As he confronts these challenges, he reflects upon his own life, the life of his ex-wife—a former Miss Rodeo North Dakota—and the prejudices faced by their daughter growing up in a small town on the prairie. The peace is about to be shattered, and there will be blood. THE LAST DAKOTA COWBOY is a deeply moving story about love, loss, and betrayal in uncertain times.
Paul Legler is a former lawyer turned writer. Legler grew up on a small farm in North Dakota and was educated at the University of North Dakota, University of Minnesota, and Harvard University.
