Open Season by Archer Mayor
Lt. Joe Gunther of the Brattleboro, Vermont police force has a serious problem: in a community where a decade could pass without a single murder, the body count is suddenly mounting. Innocent citizens are being killed--and others set-up--seemingly orchestrated by a mysterious ski-masked man. Signs suggest that a three year-old murder trial might lie at the heart of things, but it's a case that many in the department would prefer remained closed. A man of quiet integrity, Lt. Gunther knows that he must pursue the case to its conclusion, wherever it leads.Archer Mayor is the author of the critically praised Vermont-based series dubbed the best police procedurals being written in America by the Chicago Tribune. He is a death investigator for the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner in Vermont, as well as a detective with 25 years of volunteer firefighter/EMT experience. Mayor delivers seminars and workshops all throughout the country, including the Colby College course on forensic sciences in Waterville, Maine, in addition to penning novels and occasional articles. Many authors base their books only on interviews and academic study, whereas Mayor's novels are based on firsthand experience. As a result, his characters and their tribulations have more depth, realism, and veracity, prompting The New York Times to dub him the boss man on methods. Mayor's critically regarded police novel series has received great praise from publications like as The New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, New Yorker, Publisher's Weekly, and others, and has frequently appeared on their ten best yearly lists.
