Outlaw falconer Nate Romanowski is off the grid and out for revenge in this riveting new novel from #1 New York Times bestseller C. J. Box.

The campaign of destruction that Axel Soledad and Dallas Cates wreaked on Nate Romanowski and Joe Pickett left both men in tatters, especially Nate, who lost almost everything. Wondering if the civilized life left him vulnerable to attack, Nate dropped off the grid with his falcons in tow to prepare for vengeance.

When Joe gets a call from the governor asking for help finding his son-in-law, who has gone missing in the Sierra Madre mountain range, he enlists the help of a local, a rookie game warden named Susan Kany.

As Nate and fellow falconer Geronimo Jones circle closer to their prey, Joe and Susan follow the nearly cold trail to Warm Springs. Little do Nate and Joe know that their separate journeys are about to converge ... at Battle Mountain.

Kirkus Book Review

Unbeknownst to each other, Wyoming Fish and Game Warden Joe Pickett and outlaw falconer Nate Romanowski embark on equally urgent pursuits that converge in a way neither of them suspects. Nate, who's been off the grid ever since his wife, Liv, was killed in a fire intended to kill him too inThree-Inch Teeth (2024), has sworn vengeance on murderous conspirator Axel Soledad. After shooting several of Soledad's hirelings, he joins forces with his friend and fellow Special Forces vet Geronimo Jones, who's tracked him down, to chase his quarry deep into the woods. Governor Spencer Rulon, meanwhile, has pressed Joe into service once again to find veteran hunting guide Spike Rankin and his new assistant, Mark Eisele, who just happens to be Rulon's son-in-law. Although nobody's heard from the men for two days, the governor doesn't want his wife and daughter to know they're missing, and that means not alerting the media or the local sheriff, who's no fan of Rulon's anyway. Readers who've already seen Rankin and Eisele overpowered and imprisoned by a mysterious crew they ran into while they were setting up for the elk hunting season will assume that Soledad is behind their kidnapping as well. But Box will keep everyone guessing about exactly how Soledad and the ragtag military cult he's gathered around him plan to confront the military-industrial complex he's persuaded them is a clear and present danger. You know you're in for a wild ride when Joe, saying goodbye to Marybeth, his long-suffering wife, promises her, "I'll do my job and not cross the line." Middling for this stellar series, which makes it another must-read, preferably in one sitting. Copyright (c) Kirkus Reviews, used with permission.
