Battle Mountain

Joe Pickett, Book 25

By: C.J. Box

Narrated by: David Chandler

Outlaw falconer Nate Romanowski is off the grid and out for revenge in this riveting new novel from #1 New York Times bestseller C. J. Box.

The campaign of destruction that Axel Soledad and Dallas Cates wreaked on Nate Romanowski and Joe Pickett left both men in tatters, especially Nate, who lost almost everything. Wondering if the civilized life left him vulnerable to attack, Nate dropped off the grid with his falcons in tow to prepare for vengeance.

When Joe gets a call from the governor asking for help finding his son-in-law, who has gone missing in the Sierra Madre mountain range, he enlists the help of a local, a rookie game warden named Susan Kany.

As Nate and fellow falconer Geronimo Jones circle closer to their prey, Joe and Susan follow the nearly cold trail to Warm Springs. Little do Nate and Joe know that their separate journeys are about to converge . . . at Battle Mountain.

CJ BOX IS ALWAYS ENTERTAUNING AND A GREAT LISTEN. I LEARN QUITE A BIT FROM JOE AND NATE. LOVE ALL THE CHARACTERS. I HAVE READ JUST ABOUT EVERY PICKET NOVEL AND DO NOT TIRE OF THE TALES CJ FASHIONS.

Another Joe Pickett adventure

Love the series. Good seeing all the familiar characters evolve.
And the reality of what has happened to our veterans. Way too familiar with that sad to say.

I love this series!

Battle Mountain did not disappoint! I tried to limit my listening time.. it didn't work. I was done way to fast.

Love Joe Pickett!

CJ Box never disappoints. The biggest disappointment is that I finished the book! This book is fast paced and easy immerse yourself in. David Chandler does an excellent job reading!
