really liked it
bookshelves: 2009-books, action

I felt the author gave a true portrayal of what life is like in Idaho. The idea that Californian's should stay in California. They move to Idaho to get away from the chaos and then try to change and manipulate things to be more like California. Go figure. I also liked the fact that Box points out that Idaho is known for racists groups. Groups by the way 鈥淭hat we chased out of Idaho several years ago".

SIDENOTE: Racist groups whose leaders ironically came from California. (Carl Story and Vincent Bertollini are from the Silicon Valley) Richard Butler was from Colorado.

The story is about a bunch of L.A. cops who have moved to North Idaho to retire and get away from California. The cops are not as wholesome as they seem and things begin to spiral out of control to cover their tracks.

I like C.J Box novels because he uses some of the western states like Idaho, Montana and Wyoming in his novels, and he has a great understanding of the way people in these states really act and feel. No 99.5% of us are not all racist skin heads out to destroy everyone who is not white. Sorry to disappoint.
