Rough Country, by John Sandford, B-plus, Virgil Flowers no. 3, narrated by Eric Conger, produced by Penguin Audio, downloaded from audible.com.

Virgil Flowers is taking a much-deserved vacation and competing in a fishing tournament in northern Minnesota when he receives a call to investigate a shooting for the state BCA in a nearby resort. The resort is specifically for women, many of the women being lesbians. A woman was shot by what appeared to be a sniper while she was kayaking. As Flowers and the local cops begin investigating, they find more murders have occurred and seem to involve the resort. The women depicted in this book were strong and interesting characters. The murders specifically seem to center in some way around a women’s country music band with a local singer who had ambitions to go national. Flowers must determine who is killing people, and what connection there is to the band and the resort. Quite good.
