Product Description:
Award-winning writer C. J. Box returns with a vengeance in this thrilling new novel featuring Wyoming game warden Joe Pickett.
It’s elk season in the Rockies, but this year a different kind of hunter is stalking a different kind of prey. When the call comes in on the radio, Joe Pickett can hardly believe his ears: game wardens have found a hunter dead at a camp in the mountains—strung up, gutted, and flayed, as if he were the elk he’d been pursuing. A spent cartridge and a poker chip lie subsequent to his body.
Ripples of horror spread through the community, and with a possibly psychotic killer on the loose Governor Rulon is forced to end the hunting season early for the very first time in state history. Are the murders the work of a deranged antihunting activist or of a lone psychopath with a personal vendetta?
As always, Joe Pickett is the governor’s go-to man, and he’s put on the case to track the murderous hunter, as more bodies and poker chips turn up.
Bold, fast-paced, and with a controversial hook—hunting versus antihunting activists—Blood Trail is proof that C. J. Box is an ever-rising talent.

This book was a real keep me up at night page turner. It is well worth purchasing, however, do not buy from Grassroots books because I did and Grassroots books sold me a library book from the Canton Free Library in Canton New York.

Here's a book that I actually thought would be spine tingling, a real thriller... the books starts out as so, but half way through I felt distracted from the story but the Killer's Poetic Justice... which is a break with how he sees things... though the idea of hearing how and what he thinks is cool... it was far too 'poem' like... this killers way of phrasing... I skipped through a few pages to get to the blood in blood trail... not great. I wouldn't read another one of his so called, 'THRILLERS.' I think some writers writes stories to meet deadlines or contracts... but I think they over-write which leads ot boring stories. Stephen King has fallen into this trap some of his latest books were a cry for help!
you're not missing much on Bloodtrail.

This is the latest in a series about Joe Pickett, game warden. Probably not the best of the series, but still worthwhile. Do wish he had spent more time on the family members as in previous books, especially concerning Joe's mother-in-law. You aren't meant to like her, but I was wondering what her current husband was going to do about her 'wandering'. Joe's daughters, Sheridan and Lucy had little space in the book as did his wife. Seemed like they were there just to support Joe. Usually they play a larger role in the role.
At any rate, the book had the usual violence and Joe gets the bad guy, even though he gets no joy from solving the crimes.

I long to live out west, so I am drawn to Joe Pickett novels. However, I generally find Box's novels to be good in the set-up, but rather uneventful in the climax. This one was no different. The set-up was disappointed by the ending.

Unfortunately for Joe, C.J. Box seems to be lost somewhere in the Bighorns searching for plausible and realistic plots. Joe is an interesting character whose development has been stifled and even somewhat emasculated by the author. And unfortunately Nate's appearance does little to highten the plot line. A very disappointing read.
