A twelve-year-old girl and her younger brother are on the run in the Idaho woods, pursued by four men they have just watched commit murder–four men who know exactly who William and Annie are. And where their mother lives. Retired policemen from Los Angeles, the killers easily persuade the local sheriff to let them lead the search for the missing children. Now there’s nowhere left for William and … William and Annie to hide…and no one they can trust. Until they meet Jess Rawlins.
Rawlins, an old-school rancher, knows trouble when he sees it. He is only one against four men who will stop at nothing to silence their witnesses. But in this thrilling mystery novel from C.J. Box, these ex-cops don’t know just how far Rawlins will go to protect William and Annie…and see that justice is done.
Blue Heaven is the winner of the 2009 Edgar Award for Best Novel.

C J Box is awesome! His books always holds my attention, always a page turner.
This is the book that got me hooked on C.J. Box and have read all of his books…this book kept me turning pages and LOVED THE CHARACTERS and development of them. For a change, STRONG CHARACTERS THAT WERE NOT SO FLAWED TO BE TOTALLY UNBELIEVABLE.
Read it and you will know exactly what I am talking about. The story line was so good, kept me …
It is the best book that I’ve read this year. Lots of themes and very believable. I would recommend this book for book clubs. Great book for discussion.
