“Clever plotting keeps this conspiracy yarn moving briskly, and the scenes depicting Nate’s abuse while in prison are harrowing. This is another top-flight crime yarn illustrating why Box’s readers are never happier than when Joe and Nate have reason to “get western.”–Publishers Weekly (starred review)
“Box has secured his reputation as an author who can take this increasingly popular genre—the modern western—and make it do whatever he wants…with a clear, easy style that plays nicely against the pulse-pounding tension. Box remains the gold standard among writers of modern western-mystery blends.”—Booklist
“Fans of this outstanding series will know better than to place their money against Joe.”–Kirkus Reviews
