Why read it?

1 author picked Savage Run as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

My next pick, by C.J. Book, presents Joe Pickett with the dilemma of facing his failings. He didn’t do enough to save his daughter. Further confounding his guilt is the fact the girl was more of an adopted child. Did self-preservation and the preservation of his family compel him to sell her out, or did he do all he could? 

Pickett comes to terms with assisting a fugitive to promote a greater good.
