In Cold Wind, Box’s searing 11th Joe Pickett novel, Joe’s mother-in-law, Missy, is accused of murdering her latest husband–there’s a part of him that can’t believe his good luck. The social-climbing harpy has had it in for him for years–but he can hardly believe she is guilty. Could a petite woman in her mid-sixties really hoist a body to the top of a wind turbine and chain it to a spinning blade? And what’s her motive anyway? Simultaneously, an old enemy ambushes Joe’s outlaw colleague, Nate Romanowski, and his lover. Nate’s grief-driven hunt for revenge adds mealty action to this multi-stranded tale.
