Joe Picket is a believable character who is strongly committed to his role as game warden for the state of Wyoming. The other elements of this story are taken from true events: missing runner, twins who escaped from a witness protection program, etc.

Joe Picket is a friend I'd like to have (and Nate too)! A modern tough-guy cowboy tale. Good guys vs. Bad guys, gunslinging and a crazy mother in law. What's not to like?
