About this listen
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.

Surprisingly good
I wasn't sure what to expect with this being the first outing for this author or character. I was pleasantly surprised and found it difficult to put down.

A 1980's American cop mystery!
Found in the Plus Catalogue, this small town police department murder investigation is a pleasingly enough listen. The stories well detailed, is a reminder of a time before everything was computerised, mobile phones were the norm; only the conclusion seems rushed, with some issues not fully developed [the father, daughter relationship for one].
As Archer Mayor's debut novel Open Season, is a fair start to what looks like a long series featuring his amicable lead character, Lt Joe Gunther.
The narration by Tom Taylorson was great, with fine character definition, which made for easy listening.

Good story
It took me a while to get into this story but once I did it was a very well presented yarn, recommended.

90% great, lacklustre ending
Brought to life by one of the best narrators on Audible. Good start to a series.

Satisfying listen
Satisfying listen, however I always wonder why so many writers insist on making the police such serial incompetents.

Relaxed
At times the narration was too soothing and I found myself waking up 4 chapters further than I remembered hearing, but that is down to the soothing voice of the narrator and not the content of the story itself as I always had to go back to make sure I heard the full story which means it kept me interested. A nice change for the hero not to be the perfect cop and to show uncertainty at times and this made me like him as a character. Interested to listen to the next one to see what else is revealed about Gunther.

Great small town detective mystery
Honestly, ran out of interesting american murder mystery authors and been searching for something like this for a while. Good characters (both people and the setting), well written and a good plot. As mentioned in other reviews the narrator has a very soothing grandfatherly voice which is mellow as old whisky.... really add to the enjoyment of listening
