First of all, if you've never read a CJ Box novel I strongly suggest you read the Joe Pickett series. Every book is quality and the characters are all so strongly developed that each read is like visiting a family member that you have not talked to in awhile. This book had all of the elements of the typical Joe Pickett novel. Joe having to make moral decisions, which are always tough for him since he has such a high moral compass. There is always new and old antagonists, that Joe has to deal with simultaneously. Joe's family always gets involved, which is great because they are such great characters and good ole Nate always has a role and he is an awesome character.

Daughter Sheridan gets involved in solving this mystery. This book left me hanging for the next.

I am binging my way through the Joe Picket series while I’m driving/camping in Wyoming. These books are a perfect audio partner while I drive. Fun plots, great characters, and wonderful narration. It’s so much fun to actually see the places CJ Box describes.

Go with God. But leave me out of it.

I thought the most common name is John Smith, then I found out that book characters often have a friend named Jack Daniels.
