Joe Pickett

JOE PICKETT is a suspenseful, hour-long crime drama set in an epic Western landscape. Joe is the new Game Warden in Saddlestring, Wyoming, a town as beautiful as it is corrupt. Joe and his young family get off to a rocky start in Saddlestring when a poacher steals Joe’s gun and threatens him with it – and when a shocking murder hits close to home. Based on the best-selling book series by C.J. Box.

Joe teams up with a reluctant Sheriff’s department to investigate a murder that hits too close to home. Marybeth, Missy and the girls move into a motel now that their home has become a crime scene. Joe follows a series of clues that lead him to a mysterious survivalist named Nate Romanowski who is arrested for the murder. But is Nate really the killer?

Joe teams up with his old friend Wacey Hedeman to search the mountains for two missing outfitters who might be the killers. Meanwhile, Nate Romanowski asks Joe’s wife, Marybeth, to be his lawyer. Vern placates Opal Scarlett and her sons, who are the most powerful and dangerous family in Saddlestring.

The town comes together at the Saddlestring Deer Days Festival and Joe is treated like a hero for solving a double murder. But Joe & Marybeth suspect the real killers may still be at large.

After Ote Keeley’s bizarre funeral, Joe and Marybeth agree it’s too dangerous to continue investigating the murders. They make a deal to stop, but they both struggle to stick to that deal.

After his annual “budget meeting” with Saddlestring’s goat mayor, Joe investigates a grisly crime at Violet and Vivian’s emu farm. Missy and McLanahan get closer.

While Marybeth is questioned about Nate’s escape, Joe finds a key piece of the puzzle—a potential motive for the murders. The discovery leads to retribution from Joe’s boss. Meanwhile, Nate protects Cricket from a dangerous visitor. Jeanne abandons April after a deadly encounter with a killer.

Joe and Nate form an uneasy alliance as they head up the mountain in search of evidence in support of Joe’s theory. Sheriff Barnum and a posse search the mountain for Nate, who is a fugitive. Meanwhile, Marybeth and Sheridan return home to a dangerous ambush. And we learn through flashbacks what really happened up at Crazy Woman Creek and who really killed Ote and the outfitters.

Sheridan must survive a terrifying night on her own by running and hiding from her increasingly unhinged stalker. Marybeth undergoes emergency surgery as Joe struggles to protect his family. Missy’s drinking endangers her family at a key moment. Vern Dunnegan tricks the Scarletts into doing his bidding.

Joe races from Marybeth’s hospital bedside to rescue Sheridan, who has spent the night running and hiding from her stalker. With help from Sheridan and Nate, Joe has a final showdown with the killers. In the aftermath of this face-off, the Picketts lose one family member and gain another.
