Summer Book Club: Force of Nature by C.J. Box
Horses, Wyoming, Hot Falconers, Death, Mystery, YEAH!!!!
Editorial Review - Publishers Weekly vol. 259 iss. 05 p (c) 01/30/2012Edgar-winner
Box’s breakneck 12th Joe Pickett novel (after 2011’s Cold Wind) focuses
on Joe’s outlaw buddy, Nate Romanowski (who is smoking hot charactor) Nate’s been hiding in the
foothills of Wyoming’s Bighorn Mountains from cruel and powerful
enemies, harmlessly communing with his falcons (except when's he is twisting off someone's ear), except when assisting
game warden Joe on a case. Unfortunately, Nate’s sociopath former
Special Forces commander, John Nemecek, a fellow falconer, comes after
him with merciless efficiency and a crew of fanatical thugs, and Nate
responds with measured but startling ferocity. When Nemecek begins
interrogating—and eliminating—people connected to Nate, Joe’s family
members become targets, forcing Joe to decide how far he can go to help
his friend. The struggle between loyalty and law has always been at the
heart of this series, set far from big-city legal support systems, and
it’s especially impressive in this superior entry (plus we finally get a sex scene!!!!).
