Cold Wind (Joe Pickett #11)
But then things happen to make Joe wonder: Is Earl's death what it appears to be? Is Missy being set up? He has the county DA and sheriff on one side, his wife on the other, his estranged friend Nate on a lethal mission of his own, and some powerful interests breathing down his neck. Whichever way this goes . . . it's not going to be good.
Another good read about ol' Joe and Nate. I like it when both are in the book! The wind energy thing was thought provoking.
One thing I love is wind power, good stuff and fun to read about. Combine that with an awesome setting like Wyoming and Joe Pickett, and you have a dynamo of a novel. Check this out from Publishers Weekly: Wyoming game warden Joe Pickett must try to prove that his despised mother-in-law, Missy Alden, isn't guilty of murdering Earl Alden, her fifth husband, in Box's searing 11th Joe Pickett novel (after Nowhere to Run). Pickett's gruesome discovery of Alden's body is followed almost immediately
Another outstanding contribution to a strong series. Think the life of a Wyoming game warden is dull? Wait until you meet Joe Pickett. Glad I discovered C.J. Box, and found most of his books in hardcover at Chamblin's Book Mine in Jacksonville, FL.
Another great one from C J Box.
Is there a better series than the Joe Pickett series? The books are very consistent. The characters are well written and the stories are complex but easy to follow and the environment is as big a part of the story as any person.
The series is strong. For me it synergistically makes each book better and more appealing than they would be alone.I also for the most part like the characters a lot. Joe Pickett is a compelling, complicated man, the daughters--especially complicated April--are great. I am not nearly as taken with Rambo Nate Romanowski; he is interesting, but seems more like a super hero comic book character than real. Some other characters are excellent, some (the Sheriff and his deputies) a little two
