Review of Shots Fired by C. J. Box

This book is my first introduction to the writings of C.J. Box and I was quite taken with his stories. Box conveys the atmosphere and characters of Wyoming very well. All of these stories except for one involve a death whether intentional or accidental. Life is physically hard in the environment that these stories take place in. I could feel the bone chilling cold of winter in several of the stories. Box describes place and environment very well. Many of his characters are rugged individuals who seem more comfortable being alone than with other people and have their own take on the world. I highly recommend this book. I will be looking for other C.J. Box books to read.
