Well, that sounds good and bode well, the originating author retaining some control over the work. All the books are very good if you like mystery police procedurals, based on a few decades ago, and you like the character loner Byronic hero Harry Bosch, with his own demons of the past, (Vietnam as well as childhood) his mission in life, and the mantra lives by "everybody counts or nobody counts".
I really do like the Jessie Stone Books and the books are better than the movies (though the Tom Selleck portrayal of the failed big city, divorced, recovering alcoholic homicide cop, turned small town police chief is quite good to character created), but I only go for the original author.
Yes, in the Longmire series on TV, the characterization of Henry Standing Bear, played by Lou Diamond Phillips is quite good (one of the closest go source), though the show goes more toward drama even with Bear, not nearly as evident in the books, which went more toward the stoic mysticism rooted in the culture of one of Walt's oldest and closest friends, with friends and relations in the elders of the local tribe. Certainly not to the extent of The Teachings of Don Juan: A Yaqui Way of Knowledge, by Carlos Casteneda, but of course that started as Master’s Thesis in anthropology, and Longmire is a modern day western Sheriff mystery, set in the wilds of Wyoming. The books by Craig Johnson are excellent if you like those two character, and Johnson is very good at fleshing out his characters, far better than on the TV show.
That last one you mention on the tribal police, was there a one or two season TV show on that, that finished a couple of months ago, though I cannot remember the name at the moment. I may have read books in a series like that, also, if I could come up with a name.
