I have lived in Wyoming almost all my life as well. I spent many weekends and summer days around Ten Sleep and in the Bighorn Mountains camping, hiking, fishing and hunting. (The biggest fish I ever caught in my life was caught in Tensleep Creek when I was a kid) I may not be able to locate the exact places in the books, but the settings in the ... Read Morebooks bring back many fond memories of time spent in the mountains and open country of northern Wyoming. When I read Joe Picket stories I feel like I am right there with him. I see and feel the country as described. It's a great escape! I think that's the whole point.

I remember from your website that all the Joe Pickett novels were based on certain actual places in Northern Wyoming, but were not an actual "place". But....I've traveled through N. Wyoming a few times, and can place in my mind the scenery that you write into your books. This adds to the complete reading experience while reading CJBox's books. Thanks! This comes from my home here in the Deep South. And oh yeah, we love Wyoming!

“Tell Sherry April called.” That simple phone message shakes Joe Pickett’s oldest daughter Sheridan and the rest of the family to the core. To Joe, it doesn’t seem even remotely possible that April could have survived the massacre described in Winterkill six years before. He was there, and he was unable to save her. Bu...t Sheridan starts to believe there’s a chance that April is still alive, and her suspicions are confirmed when the person sending texts to her cell phone is able to recall family incidents only April could know.

Meanwhile, a dying Chicago mobster named Stenko and a much younger girl cross the country. He’s on a mission is to reconcile with his extreme environmentalist son before he goes. His son is less interested in reconciliation than in getting his father to repent for the environmental crimes he’s committed during his lifetime. He wants his father to become not just carbon neutral, but to reduce his carbon footprint to below zero—as if he’d never even existed.

Joe, however, remains wary of the messages, even though their references to things only April could know are convincing. But when the texts start to refer to “bad things,” and when Marybeth discovers they come from locations throughout the West where vicious murders have taken place, alarm bells go off. Desperate to discover if April is still alive and to save her from possible danger, Joe, Sheridan, and Nate Romanowski take to the road to connect the texts with the crimes.

As the path of Stenko and his companions starts to cross with Joe, Sheridan, and Nate, the question is raised: Is this young girl April or is The Pickett Family the victims of the cruelest of hoaxes?
