Description

Don’t miss the JOE PICKETT series—now streaming on Paramount+

A stranger makes trouble for Wyoming game warden Joe Pickett in this gripping thriller in the #1 New York Times bestselling series.

Everything about the rich stranger is a mystery: the massive, isolated ranch in the remote Black Hills of Wyoming, the women who live with him, the secret philanthropies, the private airstrip, the sudden disappearances. And especially the persistent rumors that the man’s wealth comes from killing people.

Joe Pickett, still officially a game warden but now mostly a troubleshooter for the governor, is assigned to find out the truth. But he finds out a lot more than he bargained for. There are two other men living up at that ranch. One is a stone-cold killer who takes an instant dislike to Joe. He doesn’t frighten Joe at all. The other man is another story...

What a story this is! Gripping tale of murder and corruption at the highest levels in a small county in Wyoming. Governor Rulon enlists Joe Pickett to be his eyes and ears but to not get too close and let professional law enforcement close the case. Somehow Joe can’t stay out of it.

An elusive billionaire named Templeton lives in a massive ranch in a very remote area of Wyoming called the Black Hill. To the townspeople he is a godsend. They were barely surviving. Out of work, very few businesses were still operating. He helps numerous people financially and is loved by all. Templeton has a dark side. His primary business is murder for hire. Another riveting read in this series!! Enjoyed immensely!!! My highest recommendation!!

I started this series because it is based in Wyoming. Both my parents were raised in Central Wyoming and as a preachers kid, Wyoming was our home base. After reading the first book in the Joe Pickett series I wasn't sure I should continue to the next because I felt the language and some of the background scenes were graphically gratuitous. I feel that when the author found his footing he realized it wasn't necessary and stuck to adventure and action instead of cheap attention getters. His books only got better after the first one and I am enjoying this series and contemplating getting a classroom set for my students. I recommend this series for anyone who loves and knows the outdoors, and cares about the people who live close to the land - those people whose culture includes hunting and fishing.

I love the movie “Shane” and this is the modern equivalent. I’ve bought 14 of these books and would encourage you to do the same. I’m addicted. Nate is Shane and Joe is Joe. I love these books.
