Killing Floor is the first book of the Jack Reacher series by Lee Child.

Theodore Glenn loves to inflict pain . . . both on his victims and on those who later find the mutilated corpses. At his trial seven years ago, Glenn vowed vengeance on Detective Will Hooper, the cop who nabbed him, and beautiful Robin McKenna, the stripper whose testimony put him behind bars.
When a catastrophic disaster sets Glenn free, he blazes a freshly bloodied path across San Diego County. But the death he craves most is Robin McKenna's.
Putting aside their past troubled relationship, Will rushes to protect Robin, now a savvy businesswoman operating an upscale club. As the killings mount and Glenn proves a master manipulator, Robin and Will become snared in a twisted web of horror. But the shocking truth is even worse: The evil they are to face is even deadlier than they fear

Killing grounds - [8] Kate Shugak mystery by Dana Stabenow
Like Nevada Barr,
Dana Stabenow writes mysteries so firmly rooted in the natural world
that their sense of place becomes a vital part of the plot. In this
book about Native Alaskan crime solver Kate Shugak, the ocean and the
men who fish it for salmon are described in such vivid detail that
you'll never look at a salmon steak the same way again. When a
particularly nasty fisherman is murdered, there's no end of
suspects--including members of Kate's own family. The story also sports
a richly ironic undertone of political incorrectness, as Kate muses
about the forest rangers, "who wanted to annex every square foot of
land they saw and keep it pristine and inviolate, unsullied by human
hand. They failed to recall that the indigenous peoples who came across
the Bering land bridge during the last Ice Age had their hands all over
anything that had the remotest possibility of nutritional value, and
were every bit as much of the landscape and the wheel of life as the
fish and the birds and the mammals." AUDIO NEEDED!!!
