Shadows Reel

Game Warden in Wyoming Joe Pickett's work has often placed him and his daughters in danger. In this gripping new book in the best-selling series, the tables have now turned as his wife finds something that puts the Pickett family in the path of a murderer.

An unlabeled parcel is discovered at the front door of Marybeth Pickett's workplace library the day before the three Pickett daughters return home for Thanksgiving. She discovers a picture book that belongs to a notorious Nazi officer as she opens the gift. Who abandoned it there? Why did they give it to her, too?

She finds out that a few troops from Wyoming battled their way to Hitler's Eagles Nest stronghold in the Alps during World War II, and one of them stole Hitler's personal picture book. Was this one taken by someone else and kept for all these years? Joe meets the guy's kid after learning of his identity and seeing that he has been severely tortured and killed. The man was most likely a resident of the unit. Why is someone pursuing the picture album? Additionally, Joe and Marybeth are faced with a new dilemma after the death of a close neighbor: how can they solve the book's mystery before someone harms them—or their girls?

In the meanwhile, Nate Romanowski is searching for the guy who assaulted his wife and took Nate's falcons, a younger, more vicious version of himself. Nate follows the guy throughout cities using a network of other falconers, and he discovers that the man is an anarchist financier and propagandist. As he realizes the actual danger his target poses, Nate moves quickly to finish the job and set up an incredible clash.
