Back of Beyond by C.J. Box

3.0

If you like your heroes mean, violent, drunk, unethical, and a smoker crazy for nicotine, this is the story for you. Cody Hoyt is not a nice guy. He's kinda crazy, and has been thrown off a previous police force, and he's in big trouble with his current one. He's also looking for the person who killed his good friend and AA sponsor.

What follows is a moderately complex story involving a crashed plane, a trip on horseback to the back of Wyoming, and corruption at various levels.

Not a great story, I guess, but an entertaining enough way to spend a couple of afternoons while spinning.
