“Praise for Below Zero "Murder well done...[A] sturdy series with Joe Pickett, a stand-up Wyoming game warden and all-around good guy."-- The New York Times Book Review "Pickett [is] one of the most appealing men in popular fiction, a laid-back, good-natured guy until he's riled, and then you'd better look out."-- Chicago Tribune "Wyoming's immense spaces make a fitting background for another tense thriller, with the iconic Devils Tower holding court over a frantic chase through the tangled roads of the Black Hills.
