Joe Pickett is the new game warden in Twelve Sleep, Wyoming, a town where nearly everyone hunts and the game warden—especially one like Joe who won't take bribes or look the other way—is far from popular. When he finds a local hunting outfitter dead, splayed out on the woodpile behind his state-owned home, he takes it personally. There had to be a reason that the outfitter, with whom he's had run-ins before, chose his backyard, his woodpile to die in.

First it was the army and the military police, then the police in St. Paul, and finally Lucas Davenport brought him into the BCA, promising him, "We'll only give you the hard stuff." He's been doing the hard stuff for three years now, but never anything like this.

Publisher's Summary
The plane circled in the dark. Joe Pickett could just make out down below a figure in the snow and timber, and then three other figures closing in. There was nothing he could do about it. And Joe knew that he might be their next target.
The Cates family had always been a bad lot. Game warden Joe Pickett had been able to strike a fierce blow against them when the life of his daughter April had been endangered, but he'd always wondered if there'd be a day of reckoning. He's not wondering any longer. Joe knows they're coming after him and his family now. He has his friend Nate by his side, but will that be enough this time? All he can do is prepare...and wait for them to make the first move.

Joe Pickett returns! Terrific mystery!
If you're new to the Joe Pickett series, you're in for a treat, but don't start here. The 17 books (plus a novella and short story) are best read in order since the characters age and evolve. Not that it is necessary to read every one; nevertheless, all but a few are 4- or 5-stars. Even though it seems clear from the outset who the villain is, Joe follows his instincts in search of motive and opportunity. As usual, he is assisted by his stalwart wife Marybeth, an attorney and librarian, as well as by his strange friend Nate Romanowski toward the end. (Calling Joe "Dudley Do-right", Nate has his own moral code and serves as a counterpoint to Joe.) If you don't like police procedurals, you may find this story a bit slow and disappointing, but there is more to a mystery than whodunit. Following "Off the Grid," which, unlike most fans, I found to be a huge misstep for Box (and can be skipped,) I was pleased to see him return to form. There are some minor technical errors concerning the functioning of an iPhone, but, unless you are an engineer, you probably won't even notice. Anyway, this is fiction after all.
As always, David Chandler is a superb reader.
I look forward to the next in the series.

Thank you C.J. Box, AWESOME JP book!
Any additional comments?
I've enjoyed the entire Joe Pickett series, each book is captivating, intriguing and this one doesn't disappoint. Good suspense in this book, narrator does a splendid job with all the characters. You don't need to start at the first of the series to enjoy these books, but it helps. You will get drawn into the splendid characters of each book in the series.

Not the best book in the series!
I have listened to this entire series. From the first book I was disappointed with the reader but I got used to him and learned to look past his rather mono tone reading. I found this book a real disappointment because the author got so many things wrong. It seems that an author should be able to check his own story line in any sequel he writes. For instance, he wrote in this book that Brenda was found on top of of her husband in the well. That was wrong because Brenda fell into the well when Livia pulled her in. Then Livia hit Elmer in the head and he fell on top of Brenda. There were a lot of these little mistakes through out the book. Bud was not the husband Missy killed and chained to the windmill. Was Box testing our memory or his own?

Skip this C.J. Box
Would you try another book from C. J. Box and/or David Chandler?
I've enjoyed so many of C.J. Box's Joe Pickett novels. This one seemed like he just got out some old plot elements, reinvigorated characters he knows his listeners enjoy, and spread them around a bit in a "new" novel. If you are new to Box, skip this one and start at the beginning. Wondering whether to add this to your collection? Not recommended.

Not one of Box's better books
This was essentially a follow on story from an earlier novel. As such, it didn't really offer much of interest and was not very engaging. To compound matters, the narrator was awful. He reads like someone not proficient with reading. By that, I mean he pronounces every syllable distinctly rather than allowing the words to flow as they would in normal conversation. This makes for an uncomfortable listen. Had this been some other writer, I probably would have quit without finishing.

Not enough Joe Picket action
I found this book to be much less action packed than other Joe Picket adventures.... There's not a lot of Nate Romanowski action either. Basically, it's Joe and his wife working together to crack another case.

Another great Joe Pickett novel .
There is a problem with the background story. It was Earl Alden not Bud Longbreak that was tied to the wind turbine. Other than that it was another great Joe Pickett novel.

Great storyline just not Joe Pickett caliber.
I am a huge fan of the Joe Pickett series. Love all the characters. This was a great story with such a blah ending. Could've been one of the better books had the ending not been so boring. Still looking forward to the next adventure tho.
