Book Reviews of Blood Trail (Joe Pickett Novels)
Book Review: Another hit for C. J. Box
Summary: 4 Stars
This is the latest in a series about Joe Pickett, game warden. Probably not the best of the series, but still worthwhile. Do wish he had spent more time on the family members as in previous books, especially concerning Joe's mother-in-law. You aren't meant to like her, but I was wondering what her current husband was going to do about her 'wandering'. Joe's daughters, Sheridan and Lucy had little space in the book as did his wife. Seemed like they were there just to support Joe. Usually they play a larger role in the role.
At any rate, the book had the usual violence and Joe gets the bad guy, even though he gets no joy from solving the crimes.
Summary of Blood Trail (Joe Pickett Novels)
Award-winning writer C. J. Box returns with a vengeance in this thrilling new novel featuring Wyoming game warden Joe Pickett.It's elk season in the Rockies, but this year a different kind of hunter is stalking a different kind of prey. When the call comes in on the radio, Joe Pickett can hardly believe his ears: game wardens have found a hunter dead at a camp in the mountains-strung up, gutted, and flayed, as if he were the elk he'd been pursuing. A spent cartridge and a poker chip lie next to his body.
Ripples of horror spread through the community, and with a possibly psychotic killer on the loose Governor Rulon is forced to end the hunting season early for the first time in state history. Are the murders the work of a deranged antihunting activist or of a lone psychopath with a personal vendetta?
As always, Joe Pickett is the governor's go-to man, and he's put on the case to track the murderous hunter, as more bodies and poker chips turn up.
Bold, fast-paced, and with a controversial hook-hunting versus antihunting activists-Blood Trail is proof that C. J. Box is an ever-rising talent.
