Open Season is the first title in the really solid (IMO) Joe Gunther police procedural series by Archer Mayor. It is free right now at Kindle US and UK if you want to give the series a try. The early titles in this series used to go on sale a lot, then didn't for a while, and now are showing up on sale a little bit, so if you like the first one, there's some hope for eventually getting more titles on sale later if you are patient.

Spoiler:

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.

Open Season is the first of Archer Mayor’s twenty-three Joe Gunther novels, a series of gripping police procedurals set in New England, where small-town charm, stoicism and civility sometimes conceal brutal truths.
