Back of Beyond
Edgar Award-winning and New York Times bestselling author C.J. Box delivers a thriller in Back of Beyond about a troubled cop trying to save his son from a killer in Yellowstone, now reissued with additional bonus content including an introduction from the author.
Cody Hoyt, although a brilliant cop, is an alcoholic struggling with two months of sobriety when his friend Hank Winters is found burned to death in a remote mountain cabin. At first it looks like the suicide of a man who’s fallen off the wagon, but Cody knows Hank better than that. As Cody digs deeper into the case, all roads lead to foul play. After years of bad behavior with his department, Cody is in no position to be investigating a homicide, but he will stop at nothing to find Hank’s killer.
When clues found at the scene link the murderer to an outfitter leading tourists on a multiday wilderness horseback trip into the remote corners of Yellowstone National Park—a pack trip that includes his son Justin—Cody is desperate to get on their trail and stop the killer before the group heads into the wild. In a fatal cat-and-mouse game, where it becomes apparent the murderer is somehow aware of Cody’s every move, Cody treks into the wilderness to stop a killer hell-bent on destroying the only important thing left in his life.
*BONUS CONTENT: This edition of Back of Beyond includes a new introduction from the author and a discussion guide

4 Stars. I’m late to the Box party so I read all of the Pickett oops first. Now on to the Hoyt books. Cody is basically the opposite of Joe, and it worked okay for me. While he started off as unlikable as possible, he started to improve as a man as the book unfolded. The mystery was excellent. I didn’t really ever have it completely figures out. Importantly, I learned that Box is just a damned good author. Glad that there’s more for me to read from him. On to the next.

Another great C. J. Box story with several subplots, wonderful characters, a tremendous setting in Yellowstone park and a mysterious killer in the end. Box’s ability to connect the dots and tell a truly engaging story keeps the reader engaged and turning the pages.

When reading a thriller novel, nothing is more frustrating than unanswered questions, or plot lines that lead nowhere. I was gratified to find neither situation with “Back of Beyond” . CJ Box writes a tight story, and is a pleasure to read. This tale had a lot of plot lines, and I don’t seem to find any dead ends in this story.
