Breaking Point, however, takes Joe Pickett into
uncharted territory. The question is: What will he do when
he gets there?
It was always good to see Butch
Roberson, Joe thought—a hardworking, upright local business
owner whose daughter was friends with his own. Little did he
know that when he talked to Butch that day in the forest,
the man was about to disappear. He was heading into the
mountains to scout elk, he said, but instead he was running.
Two EPA employees had just been murdered, and all signs
pointed to him as the killer.
As the manhunt organized itself, Joe heard more of the
story—about the tract of land Butch and his wife had bought
to build their retirement home on, until the EPA declared it
a wetland. About the penalties they charged him when he
balked, new ones piling up every day, until the family was
torn apart...and finally, it seems, the man just cracked.
It was an awful story. But was it the whole story? The more
Joe looks into it, the more he begins to wonder—and the more
he finds himself in the middle of a war he never expected
and never wanted. Powerful forces want Roberson not just
caught but dead—and the same goes for anyone who stands in
their way.
Every man reaches his breaking point. Joe Pickett may just
have reached his.
