Savage Run
C. J. Box

First Time in Paperback

One beautiful June day, game warden Joe Pickett is called to a bizarre crime scene in the Bighorn National Forest. An infamous "eco-terrorist" named Stewie Woods has been blown up-along with his new bride Annabel Bellotti and ten head of cattle from the Vee Bar U Ranch. Was it a homicide, suicide, or freak accident? The case is wrapped up quickly- "an environmental publicity stunt gone wrong"-but Joe isn't convinced. For one thing, the millionaire rancher who owned the cattle is hiding something. And then Joe's wife confesses that Stewie Woods and she were once lovers.

As Joe plunges deeper into the investigation, he finds himself trying to sort out the "Who's Who" in a deadly conspiracy. But to get from here to there, he must make an impossible crossing over a canyon called Savage Run with two unlikely companions at his side-and a hunter at his heels who's hunting for him.
