Box continues to use his deep cast of characters masterfully. Pickett, a Wyoming game warden, is a special character, and Box has developed him (and Joe’s family) in a way rarely seen in print or on the screen. “Box’s Joe Pickett series is the best franchise in print today, regardless of genre-period. In Edgar winner Box’s terrific 20th novel featuring Wyoming game warden Joe Pickett (after 2019’s Wolf Pack ), a retired FBI agent warns. Beset by threats both man-made and natural, the two men must go to great lengths to keep their loved ones safe. All this happens while Joe is attempting to decipher a startling grizzly attack. At the same time-just as he's adjusting to the arrival of his first child-Joe's best friend, Nate Romanowski, is suspected of being the assassin. When the wife of a prominent local judge is wounded on Wyoming game warden Joe Pickett's turf, all signs point to the shot having been taken from an impossible distance. Box returns with a blazing new Joe Pickett novel, in which the Wyoming game warden must investigate a murder that happens on his turf-a murder committed from a confoundingly long distance.
