Wyoming game warden Joe Pickett is forced by the governor to take a Silicon Valley billionaire, known as Steve-2, on an elk hunt in the wilderness. Steve-2 brings along a bodyguard, an assistant to chronicle the adventure, and far too much gear. But their party is ambushed by a disgruntled father, who blames his daughter's death o the social media app Steve-2 runs. A subplot involves the theft of endangered hawks and falcons.

Suspense, action, interesting characters, and a page-turning plot set in the Wyoming wilderness add  up to a great read.

Long Range by CJ Box

Wyoming game warden Joe Pickett joins the rescue a victim of a grizzly bear attack. Something seems off about the survivor’s story, but before Joe can investigate, he is pulled away to another crime. Someone has taken a shot at a local judge, but missed and hit his wife. The shot came from an amazingly long distance, and Joe is counted on for his expertise with long range guns and shooters.

Joe’s friend, falconer Nate Romanowski, falls under suspicion. He has the skills and there is no love lost between Nate and the law enforcement community. But Nate now has a wife and baby, and has no reason to kill the judge. Joe races to discover the real shooter and solve the problem with the grizzly encounter.

Awe inspiring setting, masterful plot, and characters that leap off the page. Box never fails to engage and entertain.
