Story
Joe Pickett's in his last week as the temporary game warden in the town of Baggs, Wyoming, but there have been strange things going on in the mountains, and his conscience won't let him leave without checking them out: reports of camps looted, tents slashed, elk butchered. And then there's the runner who simply vanished one day. Joe doesn't mind admitting that the farther he rides, the more he wishes he could just turn around and go home.

Story
When Earl Alden is found dead, dangling from a wind turbine, it's his wife, Missy, who is arrested. Unfortunately for Joe Pickett, Missy is his mother-in- law, a woman he dislikes heartily, and now he doesn't know what to do-especially when the early signs point to her being guilty as sin. But then things happen to make Joe wonder: Is Earl's death what it appears to be? Is Missy being set up? He has the county DA and sheriff on one side, his wife on the other, his estranged friend Nate on a lethal mission of his own, and some powerful interests breathing down his neck.

Everything about the man is a mystery: the massive ranch in the remote Black Hills of Wyoming that nobody ever visits, the women who live with him, the secret philanthropies, the private airstrip, the sudden disappearances. And especially the persistent rumors that the man’s wealth comes from killing people. Joe Pickett, still officially a game warden but now mostly a troubleshooter for the governor, is assigned to find out what the truth is, but he discovers a lot more than he’d bargained for. There are two other men living up at that ranch. One is a stone-cold killer who takes an instant dislike to Joe.

Wyoming's new governor isn't sure what to make of Joe Pickett, but he has a job for him that is extremely delicate. A prominent female British executive never came home from the high-end guest ranch she was visiting, and the British Embassy is pressing hard. Pickett knows that happens sometimes - these ranches are stocked with handsome young cowboys, and "ranch romances" aren't uncommon. But no sign of her months after she vanished? That suggests something else.

Good plot, good writing, good narration
Once again, C. J. Box has delivered to us a wonderful novel that translates well into audio. "Below Zero" has a daring twist for these environmentally-conscious times: an environmentalist bad guy. I don't know if the conceit works, entirely, since the bad guy is doing all the wrong things for all the right reasons. Plus, he has enlisted his father to help him with his environmental extremist project; convincing his father that doing so will somehow redeem him from past wrongs. (The "Below Zero" of the title refers not to temperature, but to the carbon footprint that humans inflict upon the world.) I don't think that this father-son conceit completely succeeds either. For those two reasons I have docked one star from my rating of "Below Zero." Otherwise, I like this audiobook a lot, as I have liked all of C. J. Box's previous novels. He creates wonderful characters -- especially his main character Joe Pickett, and Joe's best friend Nate Romanowski: two very different men whom we like for very different reasons. As with Nevada Barr's, Tony Hillerman's, and William Kent Krueger's novels, the land itself plays as important a part in the story as any of the human characters. Anyone who loves the North Country will love C. J. Box's novels. David Chandler does a commendable job of narrating the story, providing good vocal distinction between the different characters.

starting to fray
I've enjoyed this series, but it seems it's time for Mr. Box to move on. It's nice his characters have matured, that their interpersonal relationships have evolved . . . but they're really running out of variations of plotlines. And as with so many books in this genre, the author works too hard to create conflict via unreasonable characters in positions of power. These become cliches of the bad FBI agent, the corrupt local official, unrealistically bent and wrong and self-serving, largely to make the protagonist seem a strong, reluctant, righteous hero.
I do like the landscape in these books, though, which is most likely what brings me back.

Interesting twist on environmental responsibility!
What did you love best about Below Zero?
The way the part of the teenage girl was written was excellent. Kept you guessing and wondering. The clues, twists and turns were intriguing.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Joe was my favorite character. He was so tortured by what happened in the past, and determined to make things right. Very nobel.
Which scene was your favorite?
Too many to choose from. One of the top few would have been the helicopter ride.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
No extreme reaction, however, it kept me entwined and anxious to get back to listening as soon as I could.

An ok read
I am a huge C.J.Box fan, and I am grading this book harder because of that. I love his series for it's evolving characters, rugged landscapes, and usually good story lines. To me, this story really wandered. It was a real stretch in believability, and too much time was spent with the bad guys. I wanted to hear more about the main characters lives. If you are a first time reader of Box, don't start here. For fans of the series you won't want to miss it, but it probably won't rank among your favorites. Nevertheless, I'll be eagerly awaiting more installments in this series.

I LOVE JOE PICKETT AND HIS FAMILY!
Once again C. J. Box has offered us a heart warming yet suspenseful mystery. He does a masterful job of combining the love of family and job duty. I don't grow tired of living the daily life with the main character, Joe Pickett. One thing that I'm really happy about is the constant narration of David Chandler. It wouldn't be the same "Joe Pickett" if the voice behind the character wasn't Chandler. It's a great series and I'm on to the next in line.
