Shots Fired: Stories from Joe Pickett Country

Shots Fired: Stories from Joe Pickett Country

From C. J. Box, the New York Times-bestselling author of the Joe Pickett novels, comes a thrilling book of suspense stories about the Wyoming he knows so wellâ€”and the dark deeds and impulses that can be found there.
Â
Over the course of eighteen books, C. J. Box has been consistently hailed for his brilliant storytelling and extraordinary skills at creating character, suspense, and a deep sense of place. All of those strengths are in the ten riveting storiesâ€”three of them never before publishedâ€”that make up Shots Fired.

In â€œOne-Car Bridge,â€ one of four Joe Pickett stories, Pickett goes up against a â€œjust plain meanâ€ landowner, with disastrous results, and in â€œShots Fired,â€ his investigation into the radio call referred to in the title nearly ends up being the last thing he ever does. In â€œPirates of Yellowstone,â€ two Eastern European tough guys find out what it means to be strangers in a strange land, and in â€œLe Sauvage Noble,â€ the stranger is a Lakota in Paris who enjoys playing the â€œnoble savageâ€ for the French womenâ€”until he meets Sophie. Then he discovers what â€œsavageâ€ really means.

Shots Fired is proof once again why â€œBox is a force to be reckoned withâ€ (The Providence Journal-Bulletin).
