“Bestseller Box, author of Stone Cold and thirteen other Joe Pickett
novels, proves in his first story collection that he’s also adept at the
short form. The ten selections, which include four Joe Pickett tales,
are filled with Box trademarks: drama, darkness, surprise twists, and a
palpable sense of a wild, magnificent, and sometimes cruel Wyoming.”

“David Chandler narrates in a rough-edged whiskey
voice that suggests summer heat, bitter winters, and windswept prairies, guiding
the listener through ten adventures of men like Fish and Game Officer Joe
Pickett. Chandler brings the listener into this strange world where, more often
than not, men have to create their own justice. His performance of the
economical stories, some rarely seen, is perfect.”

“This collection includes ten [short stories] in all, three of them
new. The surprise for some readers may be that only four of these tie in to
the Joe Pickett series. And, while those are a pleasure, it’s the
others that are most interesting, demonstrating the author’s versatility
with a diverse array of ideas…Here’s hoping we won’t have to wait long for more short stuff from Box.”
