Joe Pickett is the new game
warden in a small Wyoming town. Joe is far from popular as he can’t be bribed
and refuses to look the other way. One chilly morning as he is listening to his
two daughters talking, he hears the oldest talking about the monster she saw in
the backyard. At her insistence Joe decides to investigate. The dead body he
finds in the woodpile starts a series of events that will cause Joe to
reevaluate his life and the people in it. This death will be followed by others
which leaves Joe with more questions than answers. At stake is an endangered
species and the future of an oil pipeline being built in the area.
This is my first C.J. Box novel
and I liked it. Many of the patrons have been urging me to read the Joe Pickett
series and now I am urging you. If you have not picked up one of these books,
please do so. There are currently 21 books in the series, many of which are
available at EPL, so it will be while before you run out of reading options.
