Long Range

By C. J. Box

In the crosshairs, no one is safe.

In the new Joe Pickett novel, the Wyoming game warden must investigate an attempted assassination on his own turf...

Wyoming's Twelve Sleep County is shaken when a would-be assassin takes aim at a local judge. Their shot narrowly misses, severely wounding the judge's wife. All local law enforcement officers – including game warden Joe Pickett – are called in to track down the shooter.

The shot appears to have been taken from an almost impossible distance. Inevitably, the Feds' first suspect is ex-special forces operative, Nate Romanowski. The only way Joe will be able to prove his friend's innocence is by finding the real shooter.

Meanwhile, a startling grizzly attack in the next county draws Joe across the border to join the rescue efforts. But something in the victim's account isn't adding up, and Joe suspects all is not as it appears...

Beset by threats both man-made and natural, Joe Pickett must go to great lengths to keep his loved ones safe and solve an impossible crime in the riveting new novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author C.J. Box.

Reviews for Long Range

[jamespurcell · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Reverberations from the Wolfpack invasion are still resounding in Saddlestring. Lots of bad guys locally and imported to challenge Joe and Nat. Prime among them is the new sheriff in town. Snipers abound and Joe gets shot again but the plot is brisk and the story stays interesting. Another win for Mr. Box

"Long Range" is the 20th. installment of the Joe Pickett series. I've loved all these books and can't decide if this was the best so far. Lots of action and stories within stories. I was completely surprised to find out who the perpetrator was. The author kept me completely in the dark. It was an excellent story, well written and getting five stars.

Fast paced and action packed. Except for the part where the game warden becomes state patrol, it's a good read. Great story, great narration, Plot is engaging. Characters, especially the new Sheriff and the judge make the book exciting.

Another well written book by C J Box in the Joe Pickett series. This is a page turner with different plot twists and the usual I did not see that coming ending.

A page turner - fast paced and action packed. Not much nuance but a good ride. Box’s character - the falconer Nate Romanowsi is one of my favorite of the genre.
