Publisher Description

The telephone calls from her stepdaughter April send chills down the spine of Joe's daughter Sherry. Wasn't April murdered six years ago in a bloody massacre? Wondering how this youthful caller knows details only April could know, Sherry becomes confused while Joe grows suspicious. Is the caller April-or are Joe and his family victims of a cruel hoax?

"I like C.J. Box more and more. I enjoy the Joe Pickett series. He makes the plots entertaining and complex enough to surprise and keep the reader engaged in the story. Good read. I wish Joe were not always made to be such a "duffus" He's a great guy, a smart guy and a successful guy and I get annoyed at the constant self deprecation. I understand he's imperfect, but Mr. Box doesn't have to run it in the ground. Joe is too good of a guy."

— Linda (5 out of 5 stars)

Quotes

  • “This relentlessly paced powder keg of a thriller could be Box’s best to date.”

    " I just finished Below Zero, which I originally started in Jan!! For some reason, when I initially started this it didn't capture my attention and I put it down for a spell. I recently picked it back up and restarted from the beginning. And, I was happy I did so. The author portraits the bad guys and good guys in parallel. But, the line between the two is not distinct. Which makes for a suspenseful reading. I was a little distracted from the author's message concerning environmentalists and survivalists but overall enjoyed the storyline. I will be looking out for the other books in the series to catch up with. "

    " This was a good and bad, it was good for what happened at the end which is why it got 3 stars otherwise its a 2 star book. It felt like a cheesey mob movie. Nate once again though is a badass, plain and simple. "
