Acerca de esta escucha

Joe Pickett's in his last week as the temporary game warden in the town of Baggs, Wyoming, but there have been strange things going on in the mountains, and his conscience won't let him leave without checking them out: reports of camps looted, tents slashed, elk butchered. And then there's the runner who simply vanished one day.

Joe doesn't mind admitting that the farther he rides, the more he wishes he could just turn around and go home. And he is right to be concerned. Because what awaits him is like nothing he's ever dealt with, like something out of an old story, except this is all too real and too deadly. When he'd first saddled up, he'd thought of this as his last patrol. What he hadn't known was just how accurate that thought might turn out to be.

He's game: solve another mystery with Joe Pickett.©2010 C.J. Box (P)2010 Recorded Books, LLC

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Box inexorably builds Joe's harrowing personal quest into a complex meditation on human greed and government corruption. A lone black wolf, possibly Box's symbol for the wilderness within and without the human soul, tracks Joe throughout this terrible, beautiful tale of courage and compassion and culpability." ( Publishers Weekly)
" Nowhere to Run, the tenth in the series, ranks with his best books....Readers should take note of their surroundings before opening this book: once they start reading, they won’t know what hit them." ( Booklist)

A right-wing, wild-West Charles Dickens

Wonderful writer, great series, but this is the first in Box's game warden sagas in which the writer's right-wing politics popped me out his story. His agenda is always there, but the delivery is so good it doesn't matter to me, and I'm comfortably to the left of most of the Democratic Party. That missing runner? She surfaces to say she's been to Europe and hated to see the universal health care they practice, as it represents an intolerable loss of personal freedom. Ah yes, if you've been denied health insurance or can't afford it, free to get cancer and lose your house, your savings, your ability to feed your children. Box so obviously sympathizes with this point of view. Let's be free to have our lives run by insurance companies. The rich get richer and the middle-class disappears! Drink the Tea Party Kool-Aid! U.S.A.!!!!!

No Where to Run

Good story, I liked the way it was told. It was pretty close to how things go with the government and our freedom and rights.

More overtly political than typical

Box is clearly sympathetic to some of the extreme anti-government elements in the West, but that rather oozes in this book, to the extent that it detracted from the story and listening. While he typically is Alt right political, this book went to far for this long term Box/Pickett fan.

Joe's stubbornness gets him in big trouble.

With me giving it 5 stars down the line, shows I liked the book, though it was a bit more political then his normal stories. And I wish Joe wasn't quite so stubborn. So unbecoming. He wasn't in his earlier books. Hopefully, that changes in the future books. So far, it's only a small annoyance. Joe and Nate have a falling out, not good. But I do like Nate getting some outside interest. Still definitely worth reading the saga continues.

Excellent!

I have enjoyed all the Joe Picket stories I’ve read so far. Each one makes me one to go out & get the next book in the series. This one is one of CJ Box’s best - though I would have written the ending differently.

Immobility is fine for a mountain

My sympathy at the conclusion is not with Joe Pickett but with Nate and the Cline family. I'm an 82 year old Marine highly trained and heavily armed and live in a cabin on top of a mountain. My biggest enemy is the Federal Government.

enjoyable rural mystery thriller

This is part of the Joe Picket series, following the game warden in Wyoming. The start of this was edge-of-your-seat intensity, as Joe fights for his life to escape two crazy, rural brothers. Much of the rest of the novel focuses on who are those brothers, and why are they causing trouble. Is there a connection to a jogger who had disappeared in that area of the mountains? This part was less engaging but I still liked it. I enjoyed this novel mostly because I really like the Joe Picket character. He is a decent, believable character who does what he loves in spite of the tiny wages it pays for he and his wife to raise their girls. I like the rural setting as well. This is a rare time I listened to a second in a series, and will probably try another in the series at some point.
