2.5 Stars. I'm not outdoorsy enough to enjoy this. I'm certainly not the target audience. I'm glad I tried it and enjoyed the writing, but the plot of the Wyoming wildlife and the trials of falconry really didn't excite me.

The Joe Pickett series is always one of my favorites and this one was one of the best of the best!! Real page turner (they aren't always) and a this one brings Joe's oldest daughter Sheridan into the spotlight. Nate plays a big part and his fish as interrogation tool had me laughing out loud!! Great read that will stand on its own in the series...but read them in order!!

The new governor has asked Joe to look into the disappearance of an English lady who visited a resort ranch and suddenly disappeared. Fortunately, Joe's daughter, Sheridan, is working at the ranch and can provide some insight. It was touching to see Joe adjust to how to interact with Sheridan now that she's an adult. Of course Nate is helping out in the background. Nice cliffhanger too.

I really enjoyed this book! A cowboy-esque detective in the wild west, well written but some parts were easy to guess. May read the other 17 one day

I didn't realize I had jumped from number 4 to number 18 in the series.
Really good though

Joe is once again assigned to help the governor on special projects. However, this time it’s a new governor who is a slimeball. His principal assignment is to find a missing English tourist who disappeared after leaving an exclusive dude ranch months ago. Joe goes south to the Colorado border during winter and immediately things go south.
Plus there’s something shady going on in a nearby town with a smelter furnace. As usual it’s a fast paced plot that has you turning the pages. Some dots connected, some not as daughter Sheridan and friend Nate assist Joe.
Not everything is resolved at the end either. We will have to wait for Book#19 to resolve Joe’s future.

I’ve read many CJ Box books and I’m always glad to see Nate come back. His character is very likable.
I also was glad to read about Joes daughter Sheridan, who has now grown up.
I love his characters descriptions. He has a way of capturing their
uniqueness so well.
Good reading for sure.
