Stone Cold by C. J. Box Book Summary

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

A stranger makes trouble for Wyoming game warden Joe Pickett in this gripping thriller in the #1 New York Times bestselling series.

Everything about the rich stranger is a mystery: the massive, isolated ranch in the remote Black Hills of Wyoming, the women who live with him, the secret philanthropies, the private airstrip, the sudden disappearances. And especially the persistent rumors that the man’s wealth comes from killing people.

Joe Pickett, still officially a game warden but now mostly a troubleshooter for the governor, is assigned to find out the truth. But he finds out a lot more than he bargained for. There are two other men living up at that ranch. One is a stone-cold killer who takes an instant dislike to Joe. He doesn’t frighten Joe at all. The other man is another story...

Terrific story that you won’t want to put down. What a story this is! Gripping tale of murder and corruption at the highest levels in a small county in Wyoming. Governor Rulon enlists Joe Pickett to be his eyes and ears but to not get too close and let professional law enforcement close the case. Somehow Joe can’t stay out of it.

Stone cold. Rarely a dull moment

Exceptional. What an excellent read. My first of many from this author.

Draws you in.. A good fast-paced story. Though it doesn't grab you in the first paragraph, or, for me, even the first page, you suddenly find yourself committed to the character, Joe Pickett. There was simply no point at which I was ready to put the book aside to pick up later. Although this is apparently a series of long standing, I as a new reader had no problem getting the lay of the land and the drift of the relationships. It stands alone just fine, with the caveat that I will be going back to the beginning to get to know these intriguing characters better.

Lame. Flat characters, not worth the time. Sorry I clicked BUY after the sample.

Stone Cold. I love the movie “Shane” and this is the modern equivalent. I’ve bought 14 of these books and would encourage you to do the same. I’m addicted. Nate is Shane and Joe is Joe. I love these books.

Thanks Robert x. Yrm is z

What a ride!. I have enjoyed all of the books of this series, but this was the most suspenseful. I could have read it in one sitting, but forced myself to make it last 24 hours. I'm ready for the next one.

Stone Cold. C.J. Box. An elusive billionaire named Templeton lives in a massive ranch in a very remote area of Wyoming called the Black Hill. To the townspeople he is a godsend. They were barely surviving. Out of work, very few businesses were still operating. He helps numerous people financially and is loved by all. Templeton has a dark side. His primary business is murder for hire. Another riveting read in this series!! Enjoyed immensely!!! My highest recommendation!!

Another great story in a long line of C J Box masterpieces. Box keeps you riveted till the end. You're always trying to out guess Joes next move. Never can, but he keeps you on the edge of your seat. I expect his next will have Joe headed for Vegas to bulldog a cowboy and bring April back.

Stone Cold. I almost live in Wyoming...Fort Collins, Colorado, so the lyrical descriptions of the country in season is why I buy all of these books. Offset by a good story, somewhat different every time, yet with comfortable and familiar characters that you already know--CJ Box has a winning formula without losing the infusion of something new. The only thing beyond belief was Missy--really, are we supposed to believe that Wolfgang Templeton was taken in?

Excellent !. C. J. Box comes through again on this one. If you are a fan, you will not be disappointed. If you are not yet a fan, you need to become one.

Stone cold is awesome. The Joe Pickett series keeps getting better and better, I've read all 14 or so of them in less than 2 months ... Simply wonderful is all I can say about CJ Box and his writing skills ! I'm only disappointed that I've read the last one for a while ! I was happy as a pig in slop when I knew I had several books left. Now I'm gonna be bored to death waiting on a new novel

Fantastic!. Great read!

My review. Hard to put down.

DLP. Excellent book. I think this is his best work yet.

Stone Cold. Excellent as always.

Okay Read. Purchased this book late one night hoping for a good mystery The book was "okay". I did not realize the book was part of previous novels about the same main character. Throughout the story I felt I was missing some back-history about most of the characters and the story line. Having read any previous novels would probably have made the story better. As far as it being a good mystery, i'd have to say look elsewhere.

Stone Cold. One of his best books yet, and I’ve read most of them.

Stone Cold. Poorly developed storyline- Box keeps throwing things into the pot hoping to make the story work; which it doesn't. Mediocre all the way; trading on his past writing to pull in readers. Sad Sad Sad

Stone Cold. The complete set were a great read. Is this the end of Joe and his family? I hope not.

Stone Cold. Box at his best. A real thriller! Well done!

Stone Cold. I started this series because it is based in Wyoming. Both my parents were raised in Central Wyoming and as a preachers kid, Wyoming was our home base. After reading the first book in the Joe Pickett series I wasn't sure I should continue to the next because I felt the language and some of the background scenes were graphically gratuitous. I feel that when the author found his footing he realized it wasn't necessary and stuck to adventure and action instead of cheap attention getters. His books only got better after the first one and I am enjoying this series and contemplating getting a classroom set for my students. I recommend this series for anyone who loves and knows the outdoors, and cares about the people who live close to the land - those people whose culture includes hunting and fishing.

A return to the old Box writing. This book returns this reader to the writings I have enjoyed from the beginning. Gone are the anti-Federal government rantings of his last Pickens chapter, and back to a story which includes all the favored characters, including Nate and, yes, Missy (the mother in law one would love to bury in the vast openness of Wyoming!); with Joe jumping into the hornet nest with full fervor. Well done, Mr Box. Good to have you back!

Stone Cold. I have read every book that C.J. Box has written with anticipation. Joe Pickett is a great realistic, down to earth character, being realistic with his lack of ability to shoot straight and family issues. Stone cold was no exception. From the first page, I was drawn in by Nate and his talent for getting into trouble. All in all, it was a great read, and if will be waiting for the next book with anticipation. Larry Arens

Excellent read. Hard to put down and very well written where all of the characters come to life.

Another CJ Box page turner. As a huge fan of this series, I am afraid my remarks are just a bit prejudiced. I enjoy the way the author develops the characters and does not clutter the story with needless detail: just enough to hook us. We know what makes Joe Pickett tick. He has a very certain code of what is right and although he can be aggravating at times, he frequently leave us breathless. I can't wait for what is next!

Loved it.. This the first book by this author I have read. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and and am looking forward to reading more of his books.

Stone cold. If you've never read a Joe Pickett novel and you like the great outdoors, what are you waiting for? Box can flat out write.
