Cold Wind

Wyoming game warden Joe Pickett finds himself facing one of his most formidable challenges yet when a string of brutal, almost ritualistic murders begins to plague his remote district. The killings are as savage as the landscape they occur in, pointing towards a dark secret hidden beneath the surface of the region. All signs, though difficult to pin down, lead Joe to a powerful and notoriously influential oil magnate, Jim Chance, a man who seemingly operates with impunity, believing himself untouchable by law and consequence. Joe, known for his unwavering sense of justice and dedication to protecting both the wild and its inhabitants, must navigate the treacherous social and physical terrain to uncover the truth. This installment delves deeply into the unsettling themes of unchecked power, the corruption that often accompanies immense wealth, and the devastating impact of exploiting natural resources. As Joe Pickett races against time and the brutal Wyoming winter, he is forced to confront the stark reality that some individuals are willing to commit unspeakable acts to maintain their dominance and hide their misdeeds. The novel is compelling due to its intense suspense, the vividly drawn, often unforgiving natural setting that acts as a character itself, and Joe's internal struggle as he balances his duty with the personal risks involved in challenging such a dangerous adversary. Readers are drawn into Joe's tenacious pursuit of justice, even when facing overwhelming odds and the inherent dangers of his isolated, wild territory.
