Mad River, by John Sandford:
In police series thriller MAD RIVER, investigator Virgil Flowers leads the effort to stop a killing spree while pursuing a young couple across the Minnesota prairie. As he battles wills with the local sheriff, takes a major beating, and reconnects with an old flame, Virgil discovers that the catalyst behind the murders may be more insidious than greed born of deprivation egged on by hormones gone wild. But even Virgil’s innovative techniques can’t win them all. Sometimes, he learns, you can’t bring people to justice: justice comes to them.
