Storm Watch

Joe Pickett, Book 23

By: C. J. Box

Narrated by: David Chandler

Wyoming Game Warden Joe Pickett investigates a mysterious death at a secret remote high-tech facility in this riveting new novel from #1 New York Times bestseller CJ Box.

When a prominent University of Wyoming professor goes missing, authorities are stumped. That is, until Joe Pickett makes two surprising discoveries while hunting down a wounded elk on his district as an epic spring storm descends upon him. First, he finds the professor's vehicle parked on a remote mountainside. Then Joe finds the professor's frozen and mutilated body. When he attempts to learn more, his investigation is obstructed by federal agents, extreme environmentalists, and Governor Colter Allen. Nate Romanowski is rebuilding his falconry company—and financing this through crypto mining with the assistance of Geronimo Jones. He's then approached by a shadowy group of local militant activists that is gaining in power and influence, and demanding that Wyoming join other western states and secede from the union—by force, if necessary. They ask Nate to throw in with them, but he's wary. Should he trust them, or is he being set up? As a storm of peril gathers around them, Joe and Nate confront it in different ways—and maybe, for the first time, on opposite sides.

More please

David Chandler’s narration is excellent as usual.

The story left me wishing for more development. I love Joe Pickett and this cast of characters, but I felt the story wasn’t fleshed out.

The tenacity of Joe

The story moved right along but it got rather involved. It sounded like real life. I don’t think that China or Chinese citizens should be able to purchase land or businesses in US. The story is a warning. Suthern have a way of warning

Love this Series

I had seen this series over the years, but never thought to give it a try. After seeing that there was a Joe Pickett series, now on TV and watching every episode on the seat of my chair, I decided to give the books a try and I loved them. I've listened to every single one of them, and 1 or 2 more than once, just to be sure that I didn't miss anything during the 1st time around. The only downside is that I'm at the end of the series now and WANT MORE. I can't wait till the next book is released.

Always love hearing David Chandler

David fits CJ books so well. I love the characters and am especially glad Gov Ruelon (so?) is back. My only complaint is now I have wait for the next one

One of the Best Joe Pickett stories yet!

This is one of the best stories yet! Very timely and told in a way that keeps you hooked all the way through.
