SO GOOD!! One of my favorites in this series so far!! This 9th installment in the Joe Pickett series builds on the events of the third book in the series and my favorite, Winterkill. Joe takes a leave of absence from work and decides to work a case on his own, somewhat outside of complete legality. Joe blurs the lines between his role within his family and his role in law enforcement and I was HERE FOR IT. His daughter/helper Sheridan is awesome!!
