C. J. Box Knihy

Dvanáctiletá dívka a její mladší bratr se v lesích severního Idaha stanou svědky vraždy a dají se na útěk před čtveřicí pachatelů. Nalézt někoho, komu by se dalo věřit, je obtížné, neboť stačí jedno slůvko a jejich osud je zpečetěn. Hrdinové i padouši se objevují tam, kde byste je čekali nejméně. Na dvoře Jindřicha VIII. po popravě jeho páté manželky bují intriky a náboženský nepokoj. V Londýně se objeví sériový vrah, který čerpá inspiraci z knihy Zjevení. Právník Matthew Shardlake se zaplete do vyšetřování, při kterém mu hrozí smrt. Sedmadvacetiletá Josey Cirriniová žije osamělý život ve zlaté kleci, útěchu nachází ve sladkostech a v návštěvách listonoše Adama, do kterého je tajně zamilovaná. Po setkání s cizí ženou v šatně si uvědomuje, že ostatní skrývají závažnější tajemství než její police sušenek, a že i ona má právo na vlastní život a štěstí. Mladý šéfkuchař Max Moreton čelí dvěma pohromám: na jeho večeři dojde k otravě hostů a druhý den vybuchne bomba na hostině pro dostihovou smetánku. Max se snaží očistit jméno své restaurace a najít viníky, zatímco pátrá po stopách, které by mohly objasnit záhadu.

C. J. Box dokonale zachycuje divokou přírodu Wyomingu a vytváří nezapomenutelného hrdinu, revírníka Joea Picketta. Tento muž, plný chyb, je silný a čestný, odmítá úplatky a čelí složitým případům chamtivosti, touhy po moci a vražd. V prvním příběhu se Joe Pickett při rybolovu se svými dcerami setká se zohaveným tělem losa. Po objevu podobně znetvořeného dobytka se ukazuje, že situace je mnohem závažnější, než si myslel. Může se jednat o vraha, který si cvičí na zvířatech, než se pustí do náročnější kořisti? Dále se Joe na hranici svého pozemku setká s mrtvolou místního loveckého průvodce. I když jsou po objevení dalších dvou mrtvol vraždy rychle vyřešeny, Joe není spokojen s verzí policie a pokračuje ve vyšetřování. Zjistí, že muž zanechal tři vzácná zvířata, což by mohlo ohrozit plány mezinárodní společnosti InterWest na stavbu plynovodu. V posledním příběhu se Joe potýká se sebevraždou revírníka Willa Jensena, což ho osobně zasáhne, protože je pověřen dočasnou péčí o elitní revír. Picketta přitahuje podezření, že Jensenova smrt nebyla sebevraždou, a je odhodlaný zjistit pravdu.

Omnibus - v hlavní roli revírník Joe Pickett.

Jednoho klidného podzimního dne objeví Joe Pickett při rybolovu surově ubitého, zvláštním způsobem zohaveného losa a začne pátrat po pachateli zdánlivě nesmyslného pytláckého činu.

Úřady útoky považují za dílo medvěda, Joe však příliš dlouho žije v přírodě a ví, že záhada je dílem člověka, nebo neznámé nadpřirozené síly.

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 Joe's 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. 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 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
