Good sense of place—Wyoming—but I probably won’t continue with this series. For one, every woman in the book except the main character’s wife is evil or dumb.

Like the first 2 books in the series, this was a fast paced, entertaining read BUT the writing has become so laughably bad I can't continue. C.J. Box never mises a single chance to tell us how good Joe Pickett is, how great his kids are, how amazing his wife is... and I can't take it any more. The descriptions of the "bad guys" in this book were particularly hilarious as well.

Goddamn it, C.J. Making me throw the book at my television last night. Breaking my heart.

I'll give him this. Box doesn't pull his punches. Life sucks sometimes. Just once, I'd like Joe to get a clean win.
