Over the course of eighteen books, C. J. Box has been
consistently hailed for his brilliant storytelling and
extraordinary skills at creating character, suspense, and a
deep sense of place. All of those strengths are in the ten
riveting stories—three of them never before published—that
make up Shots Fired.
In “One-Car Bridge,” one of four Joe Pickett stories,
Pickett goes up against a “just plain mean” landowner, with
disastrous results, and in “Shots Fired,” his investigation
into the radio call referred to in the title nearly ends up
being the last thing he ever does. In “Pirates of
Yellowstone,” two Eastern European tough guys find out what
it means to be strangers in a strange land, and in “Le
Sauvage Noble,” the stranger is a Lakota in Paris who enjoys
playing the “noble savage” for the French women—until he
meets Sophie. Then he discovers what “savage” really means.
Shots Fired is proof once again why “Box is a force to be
reckoned with” (The Providence Journal-Bulletin).
