Box is a good story, tortured into him from an ex Wyoming sheriff. A little too contrived. Ending for me, but getting there was fun.

I used to love CJBox books, but since he has unashamedly fallen into radical right wing political commentary, I can’t stand them. I wish I hadn’t bought this book

It all falls apart in chapter 22. The author believes that the groups that have acted to overthrow elected officials are all part of the deep state. He actually uses that term. These are just well-meaning patriots who’ve lost their jobs. They would never consider insurrection if they weren’t enticed and entrapped by the FBI. Except one of the conspirators is a sheriff’s deputy who plans to murder our hero the game warden. So how do you explain the sheriff’s deputy if the whole domestic terror threat is a figment of the libtards’ (another term used by the author) imagination? Inconsistent, inane drivel. Don’t bother.

4 Stars. I love the Pickett books and this one was no exception. Other than being a little preachy politically, I guess. I get enough of that daily in this country on every news platform in existence. Still, Joe and the gang were predictably enjoyable. The mystery was a good one and I can tell you it will be a quick little thriller to enjoy. Definitely ready for the next one.

A really slow to develop story with a sub par ending. I kept reading just to see if it got good knowing some of the author’s stories. I waited and waited and then it ended. Not my favorite by this author.

Boorishly Booooring! You know I don’t know who wrote the screenplay for the streaming Joe Pickett series or who is actually directing the most boring childish and ridiculous……oh never mind like the director I’ve. List my way

Not the best by Box but not the worst. A lot of politics. Is the author running short of ideas? After all you can only have so many game poachers and so many blizzards in the state of Wyoming.

Not sure who are writing these books but not the quality of all of C J Box books.

On of C. J. best! Period!

I thought it was very well written, kept me reading, I felt as if I were apart of the story. This is my first read by Cox. I will look for others. The political aspect is what we are Iiving today. My research tells me this story has a lot of truths in the fiber of the story.
