Winterkill

A gripping read from C.J. Box, author of the Joe Pickett and Cassie Dewell series, now adapted into the hit TV shows Joe Pickett and Big Sky.

Lamar's murder and the sudden onslaught of the snowstorm warn: get off the mountain. But Joe knows this episode is far from over. Somewhere in the dense timber, a killer is drawing his bowstring — with Joe as his prey…
