Walt Longmire is the sheriff of fictional Absaroka County. Sheriff Longmire’s longtime friend Henry Standing Bear, a Cheyenne man, provides insight to and sometimes aids in dealing with tribal police. As the series progresses, the friends deal with issues of gambling at a casino on the reservation, issues of competing jurisdictional authority for protecting people and prosecuting crimes, and other issues of contemporary Native American life.
