I've enjoyed all the Joe Pickett novels...a REALLY nice guy who stumbles into all these bad situations and bad characters when all he really wants to do is catch poachers and go home at night to his family. And he's a lousy shot as well. At times Joe Pickett almost seems bewildered by the nasty people and corrupt bureaucrats around him. A refreshing change from the hard-core, know-it-all detectives and private eyes one encounters in this genre. I also enjoy his long-suffering wife and feisty kids! Loved the twists and turns in this book.

This book hit the ground running and didn't let up! I loved every second of it. I think this one was my favorite so far. Can't wait to read book #6!

great read. I hated that the main character started straying from his wife but he found his moral compass.

I finished this book while I was on my annual spring road trip. Overall it kept me entertained. A few parts got slow and annoying but overall I enjoyed it.

I was disappointed. Thought the story was slow and boring. Thought Joe was uncharacteristically selfish. Just didn’t like the story right from the beginning.

Terrific
This series just continues to get better and better. The stakes were high and the mystery keeps you guessing. I was a little disappointed with one minor plotline that felt a little unfinished but I'm sure will pick up later.
