Don't miss the JOE PICKETT series—now streaming on Paramount+

The first novel in the thrilling series featuring Wyoming game warden Joe Pickett from #1 New York Times bestselling author C. J. Box.


Joe Pickett is the new game warden in Twelve Sleep, Wyoming, a town where nearly everyone hunts and the game warden—especially one like Joe who won't take bribes or look the other way—is far from popular. When he finds a local hunting outfitter dead, splayed out on the woodpile behind his state-owned home, he takes it personally. There had to be a reason that the outfitter, with whom he's had run-ins before, chose his backyard, his woodpile to die in. Even after the "outfitter murders," as they have been dubbed by the local press after the discovery of the two more bodies, are solved, Joe continues to investigate, uneasy with the easy explanation offered by the local police.

As Joe digs deeper into the murders, he soon discovers that the outfitter brought more than death to his backdoor: he brought Joe an endangered species, thought to be extinct, which is now living in his woodpile. But if word of the existence of this endangered species gets out, it will destroy any chance of InterWest, a multi-national natural gas company, building an oil pipeline that would bring the company billions of dollars across Wyoming, through the mountains and forests of Twelve Sleep. The closer Joe comes to the truth behind the outfitter murders, the endangered species and InterWest, the closer he comes to losing everything he holds dear.

Open Season. C.J. Box. Joe Pickett is a Game Warden in the state of Wyoming. A very rugged area of the state lightly populated with outdoorsmen, survivalist’s and business owners in their small town. Weasels, nicknamed Millers Weasels have been discovered. Two men, a retired Game Warden and a deputy sheriff were already aware of this and had been in the process of killing them off due to the negative affect it would have on their personal interest’s the huge unemployment they would cause. An extremely well written and faced past read, laced with intrigue, deception and bravery. My highest recommendation!!

Open season. I just couldn’t put the book down

CDC978

Easy read. Joe Pickett is the consummate Ranger/Warden/Family man ! You definitely want him on your side. Story sets the stage for the series and while you learn lots about the man, it doesn't take too long to figure out the bad guys and why they do what they do. Will continue to read the books.

Ockham

Good read. Really captured the rough and tumble life of the Wyoming area. Great story telling that really pulls you into the characters.

Open Season. It was an easy read. I never wanted to put the book down. I’m a hunter and outdoorsman so I appreciate Box’s attention to detail. It was a tiny bit predictable but still very interesting and I bet this would translate to a good movie too

OldManSea

Great story. This is the kind of novel you pick up to read and find it is hard to lay down until you have finished! Cannot wait to read next Joe Pickett novel

Gotagoodbook?

Realistic, fast-paced good vs. evil story. Characters are well- drawn, and the story could be taken from any newspaper out West. Couldn’t put it down, though it shows more people at their worst, than best.

Original old grumpy

Can you do a “Do Over”. Rewrite the last few chapters of this book and send me a new copy.

AntChat

Kept me on my toes!. Amazing read!

Plano skywatcher

Open Season. A beautiful story, and a great read! Animals are more important than mankind!

PRT67

Good book. Loved the story and how it was developed as the book went from chapter to chapter. It really made me root for certain people and hate others as I read the book.

Bstens

Terrific Read. This book keeps the reader engaged throughout. There are very few moments where the story doesn’t have you thinking critically. Was a book you had to finish as soon as possible.

BubbaMoss

Good first book. This ended up being a real good read. At first it was a little slow and a bit depressing that the main character was such a misfit. But as it progressed you saw that the misfit could perform when needed and was also the guy in the white Stetson. I definitely will continue with more of Box's books.
