C. J. BOX is the author of six Joe Pickett novels, and has won the Anthony, Macavity, Gumshoe, and Barry awards, as well as the French Prix Calibre .38.

Best-selling author C. J. Box—an Anthony and Macavity Award winner—earned starred reviews from both Publishers Weekly and Booklist for this exceptional mystery. Taking advantage of a legal loophole, a lawyer kills four people in Yellowstone National Park and walks away a free man. As the public outcry intensifies, the governor hires former game warden Joe Pickett to conduct a private investigation.
Box is a master at working New West issues into his stories-here it's something called biomining-exploring pro and con arguments without missing a storytelling beat.... Once again, recommended for practically everybody.
