Welcome to this week’s Book Talk!
Last week, I decided to try and get up with the Joe Pickett series.
Dark Sky by C.J. Box: Joe Pickett is tasked with guiding a social media billionaire on an elk hunt. What should be a quick few days in the mountains turns into a bone-chilling, action-filled race to escape from unexpected danger.
In a secondary storyline, Nate Romanowski and Joe’s daughter Sheridan discover someone has been raiding Nate’s raptor nests. Nate is out for revenge in the aftermath of a devastating attack on his family and his livelihood.
Shadows Reel by C.J. Box: Right before Thanksgiving, Joe Pickett is unlucky enough to discover a suspected moose poaching is in fact a murder. Although he knows he should leave the investigating to the new Sheriff, Joe can’t resist poking around a little bit. And in a strange twist, the contents of a package at the library where his Marybeth works might be related to the man’s murder. Uncovering the truth about the package and the murder culminates with a clever plan that is more dangerous than they bargained for.
Meanwhile, Nate continues his hunt for his missing raptors and the man who stole them. His search takes him from Wyoming to Denver then to Seattle. Along the way, he unexpectedly stumbles on a diabolical plot that could plunge the US into chaos.
Now it’s your turn. What have you been reading lately? Join the discussion by commenting below!
Making Promises and Forever Promised, part of the Keeping Promise Rock series by Amy Lane. I stayed up too late reading them. I’ve read them before and was in the mood for a re-read.
I’ve read some of the books in the series. I’m not much of a re-reader but I do understand the draw of familiar books.
