NOWHERE TO RUN

Two years earlier, an Olympic track athlete disappeared while altitude training in Wyoming’s Sierra Madres. More recently, campsites have been trashed, an elk has been found butchered in the high country, and there’s growing talk of evil spirits. Game Warden Joe Pickett’s investigation puts him face-to-face with the Grim brothers, psychotic backwoods twins with a sadistic bent. As Pickett drags his badly beaten body from the woods, David Chandler’s performance captures every agonizing moment. Chandler’s intensity and pacing are on target as he portrays Pickett’s altruism and the more practical wisdom of his outlaw pal, Nate Romanowski. C.J. Box has written another rip-snorting Western adventure, complete with despicable villains and a flawed but valiant hero well worth rooting for.
