In frigid Wyoming lies a mystery that stretches back to Nazi Germany.
Lyle and Juan wait outside the lawyer’s house in ski masks, pistols hidden behind their backs. Shortly after dawn, Paul Parker, an aged lawyer, and his old dog step into the cold. The thugs kill the dog, and take the lawyer hostage. Parker’s day has started badly and is going to get much worse.
Once a fine lawyer, Parker’s enthusiasm has slipped with age, and criminals like Lyle are part of the reason for his disillusionment. Years after they last saw each other in court, Lyle is convinced that Parker owes him something. At gunpoint, Lyle and Juan make Parker lead them to the old Angler ranch, to open up a hidden library whose volumes hold the secret to forgotten riches, and the strangest war profiteering scheme to ever come out of the Great Plains.

Pronghorns of the Third Reich Bibliomysteries Book 3 edition by C J Box Mystery Thriller Suspense eBooks
This short novella is based on a picture showing American pronghorns being delivered to Hitler's Germany in 1936. Box has taken this picture and created a creative fictional story around this true premiss. The actual picture is included with the story.Two men have kidnapped a lawyer during a blizzard. This lawyer defended against one of these men's grandfather's assertion that he was swindled out of money he should have gotten from his old partner because they both owned the airplane that captured and delivered the pronghorn.
The interplay of the growing storm, good and evil, and an attitude of 'deserving something' because of past events is made into a fast passed story in the deft hands of C J Box. Short, but definitely worth the read!!

Pronghorns of the Third Reich Bibliomysteries Book 3 edition by C J Box Mystery Thriller Suspense eBooks Reviews
I want to preface this by saying that C.J. Box is absolutely one of the very best contemporary authors. On a scale of one to five, I'd give most of his work six stars. This is not so much a short story as a campfire story about evil, with a twist at the end. An okay read, but not much substance with some significant plot flaws. Fortunately or unfortunately, it's over before you've begun.
I thought it was very good but I was just getting into it and it was finished. Was that all? The plot was great but, to me, the story ended too soon. Maybe that is what a bibliomystery means. Short
This was a surprising tale. It wasn't at all what I was suspecting.
It's like short stories I read as a kid. Everything changes. And life is left hanging. The end is a bonus.
I started reading this and all of a sudden it was done? 37 pages? WTH? I had no idea it was a short story. Very disappointed.
First time to read C.J. Box. He had been grand Marshall in my home town in Wyoming and a friend sent me the clipping so thought I would try him. My favorite Wyo Author has been Craig Johnson, but I like a little change now and then. This ended rather abruptly and after I gave it some thought-it was the perfect ending. I will read more of his later.
C.J. has given readers a ring-tailed, switcheroo, crow-hopping story in Pronghorns.
C.J. is always easy reading -- good pleasure books that you can finish fairly quickly and not go away with bad dreams. But, "Pronghorns" takes some different turns in the short space that it occupies, utilizing factual historical material and a very likely life experience story. I wish it were longer, but I always want more for my money! Another facet of the literary art of this story lies in getting everything wrapped up in a shiny Box -- pun intended.
Spend a few snowy hours in the western realm of Wyoming among the learned and professional, the tricky and survival oriented, but not very good criminal element with the drama of weather and nature as the Pronghorns insert themselves into the picture often. The hours will be fictional -- you can read this tale pretty quickly, but you will travel through these few hours in the story.
Now, C.J. Box, do it again!
