"If CJ Box isn't already on your list, put him there." (USA Today)

When two sisters set out across a remote stretch of Montana road to visit their friend, little do they know it will be the last time anyone might ever hear from them again. The girls - and their car - simply vanish. Former police investigator Cody Hoyt has just lost his job and has fallen off the wagon after a long stretch of sobriety. Convinced by his son and his former rookie partner, Cassie Dewell, he begins the drive south to the girls' last known location.

As Cody makes his way to the lonely stretch of Montana highway where they went missing, Cassie discovers that Gracie and Danielle Sullivan aren't the first girls who have disappeared in this area. This majestic landscape is the hunting ground for a killer whose viciousness is outmatched only by his intelligence. And he might not be working alone.

Time is running out for Gracie and Danielle...Can Cassie overcome her doubts and lack of experience and use her innate skill? Can Cody Hoyt battle his own demons and find this killer before another victim vanishes on the highway?

Very Disappointing

To kill off a very interesting lead character in the second book of a series. I'm done with it. There just wasn't enough there to keep my interest after that.

Perfect Sequel to Cody Hoyt book 1 Back Of Beyond

A great follow up to the first Cody Hoyt novel. I’m excited to see where Cassie takes us.

The hideousness of the crimes being committed

This is a Box book that I very nearly returned. Just way too dark for me and uncharacteristically morbid and hard to listen to despite Holter Graham’s excellent narration.

So Much Inttigue

As usual, the author writes with authority. He knows what he writes about. I’d never be able to come up. with the details and background he has at his finger tips. He writes; I can only read.

Good twist of plot

Good crime tale with more than the 'usual' storyline. C.J. Box always seems to come up with something worth listening too.
