The Master Falconer: A Joe Pickett Short Story

Author C. J. Box
From #1 New York Times bestselling author C. J. Box comes a dramatic short story of justice—both old and new—featuring Wyoming game warden Joe Pickett.

The West is not the way it’s portrayed in the movies. But when a man from the East brings trouble for Nate Romanowski and his friend Joe Pickett, a little frontier-style justice may be just what’s called for. An exciting new addition to the series that People hails for “combin[ing] harrowing adrenaline rushes with complex morality, humor, and a landscape described so vibrantly it seems to have a life all its own.”
