Nowhere to Run

C.J. Box

Bloomsbury Publishing, Dec 22, 2022 - Fiction - 368 pages

A thrilling read set in the American West from New York Times bestseller C.J. Box, award-winning author of the Joe Pickett and Cassie Dewell series, now adapted into the hit TV shows Joe Pickett and Big Sky.

Joe Pickett's in his last week as the temporary game warden in the town of Baggs, Wyoming, but there have been strange things going on in the mountains, and his conscience won't let him leave without checking them out: reports of camps looted, tents slashed, AND elk butchered.

And then there's the runner who simply vanished one day. Joe doesn't mind admitting that the farther he rides, the more he wishes he could just turn around and go home.

When he'd first saddled up, Joe had thought of this as his last patrol. What he hadn't known was just how accurate that thought might turn out to be. Because what awaits him is like nothing he's ever dealt with: like something out of an old story, except this is all too real and too deadly.
