Free Fire comes at you gripping you so hard by the throat that you can't catch your breath till you turn the last page. First of all down on his luck main character Joe Pickett who has become one of my personal favorites series, is asked a favor by Wyomings Governor. By doing so he has everything to lose, but also everything to gain, which is mainly getting his life back including his job as a game warden that he so loved. Sometimes you have to take that chance/bait as there is no other way even though the cost can be greater than the reward! When 4 people are murdered by lawyer Clay McCann in Yellowstone National Park, who found a loophole in the law, was ultimately found innocent and walked free. Enraged by this event Governor Spencer Rulon calls on former Game Warden Joe Pickett for his help-the reward for nailing McCann, his old job with a raise. Joe knowing once the cards are laid out on the table it is going to get ugly, so he calls in his friend Nate Romanowski who is indepted to him for help. Nate who we have come to know in previous outings is a force to be reckoned with to say the least. As with any C.J. Box novel the suspense will haunt you till you yourself are in so deep you can't relent, until like Joe Pickett you find the answers. Along the way the secrets are unleashed and in its path we are let in on a web of ruthless individuals whom are involved and the reason why. This book is special in every way shape and form, I simply couldn't put it down, and I warn you as you turn the first page you better be ready for a thrill ride beyond normal proportions that coupled with some sleepless nights. After this I need to catch my breath as the next in the series I am sure will be more of the same.
