Publisher's summary

It's an idyllic late-summer day in Saddlestring, Wyoming, and game warden Joe Pickett is fly-fishing with his two daughters when he stumbles upon the mutilated body of a moose. Whatever - or whoever - attacked the animal was ruthless: half the animal's face has been sliced away, the skin peeled back from the flesh. Shaken by the sight, Joe starts to investigate what he hopes in an isolated incident.

Days later, after the discovery of a small herd of mutilated cattle, Joe realizes this is something much more terrifying than he could have imagined. Local authorities are quick to label the attacks the work of a grizzly bear, but Joe knows otherwise. The cuts on the moose and the cattle were too clean, too precise, to have been made by jagged teeth. Are the animals only practice for a killer about to move on to another, more challenging prey?

Soon afterward, Joe's worst fears are confirmed. The bodies of two men are found within hours of each other, in separate locations, their wounds eerily similar to those found on the moose and cattle. There's a vicious killer, a modern-day Jack the Ripper, on the loose in Saddlestring - and it appears his rampage is just beginning.

He's game: solve another mystery with Joe Pickett.

Broadens the horizon of Joe Picket

this is one of the best books in the series so far. It expands the horizons of the Joe Picket series and is probably the best mystery storyline in the series. Really enjoyed it

Not my favorite

I felt this story was boring and not as interesting as the rest of the books until the very end. Did not keep me engaged

Not My Favorite Joe Pickett

Not as well thought out as the first three books... there were at least a couple of glaring flaws in plot and procedure. And the "woo woo" alien factor was a bit much. But, will try at least one more of the books as I really like the characters!

Solved it way too early.

A bit too easy as mysteries go, but still an enjoyable read. I like the characters, the terrain and narrator enough that I didn’t mind figuring it out too soon.

Best Thus Far

Although some questions remained unanswered. Good storyline. Better character growth. I'd definitely recommend this book.
