Description
PREORDER C.J. BOX'S THRILLING NEW NOVEL THE CROSSROADS NOW!
It's elk season in the Rockies, but this year one hunter is stalking a different kind of prey. A gripping Joe Pickett story from New York Times bestselling author C.J. Box.
Wyoming Game Warden Joe Pickett takes the call when a hunter is found dead in the mountains. But this was no accident: the man was strung up, gutted, skinned and beheaded, as if he were the elk he'd been pursuing.
With a killer on the loose and the public horrified, Governor Rulon is forced to end hunting season early for the first time in state history, losing Wyoming lucrative revenue and infuriating hunters. That's the least of Joe's worries, for soon another murder victim is discovered.
Are the killings the work of a deranged anti-hunting activist, or of a psychopath with a personal vendetta? With tensions rising, Joe must hunt down the murderer before they strike again.
