Eleven Little Piggies

A Minnesota police detective looks into the death of a local farmer in a series that "always delivers a satisfying mystery" ( Booklist).   "Jake Hines, chief of detectives in Rutherford, Minnesota, is just trying to get through his day off: he was roped into going goose hunting, but he'd rather be warm at home. The discovery of a dead body nearby is not the way Jake wants to end his day, especially when it turns out the dead man is a local farmer who had been embroiled in a battle with other members of his family over the potential sale of some of their land. But was he murdered by a member of his own family, or by someone else entirely? Jake is a likable narrator, a guy with a good head on his shoulders and a no-nonsense approach to his job, and Gunn's latest is plenty intricate enough to keep Jake and the reader guessing . . . An engaging protagonist." — Booklist
