Book Review: “Storm Watch” by C.J. Box
This is book #23 in the Joe Pickett series. And yes….I’ve read them all. 🙂
Joe and Marybeth are now “empty nesters”.
Sheridan is working with Nate Romanowski at Yarak, Inc., and she is close to becoming a master falconer.
April is interning for a PI in Montana (Cassie Dewell!), and
Lucy is a Sophomore at the University of Wyoming.
Marybeth still runs the local library and Daisy, Joe’s yellow lab, is getting old, but, still occupies the passenger seat in Joe’s Game Warden truck……which is new….again! 🙂
A huge snow storm is rolling in and a vehicle ran into some elk in the road. One injured elk needs to be found and Joe has asked for permission to go on private property to find it.
He finds the elk, but he also finds a metal shack with huge fans making a whining noise, in the middle of nowhere. The inside of that shack is filled with computer equipment and…a dead body!
Yikes!
Menwhile, Nate and his new friend Geronimo are talking about mining Bitcoin to help Yarak, Inc. keep making money and possibly expand.
Then…..Nate is approached by a guy who is with an anti-government organization….and they want Nate to join them.
Nate, who has no love for the government, is thinking about it.
Then……
Things go “Western” really quickly and…….
Oh, you’ll have to read the book to find out what happens. 🙂
“Storm Watch” is a super fast, action-packed thriller full of intrigue, plot twists, brutal violence, and the usual tip of the hat to the late, great, Chris LeDoux.
A fantastic read!
