The fourth novel in the Grant County Southern Crime series starts off with a number of murders and a hostage situation in the local police station.  This story quickly gets interwoven with a backstory where the murder of a high school girl and contemporary of one of the main characters is discovered a few years earlier.  The stories mash well and the whodunnits are well developed, both culminating in decent conclusions.  The character development is yet again a bit painful but the whodunnits are powerful enough to survive the character development.
