Cat Dancers by P.T Deuterman

Just finished "Cat Dancers" - Cam Richters series, book 1.
An interesting escapist read - mystery thriller by P.T Deuterman.
The basic story line involves a strict judge (the {cop} main charachter's  ex-wife, and presentlly on again, off again lover.) letting two confessed murderers off on a technicality. TNo one is happy about this. vigilantes take matters into their own hands. The vigiliantes turn out to be a small group, whose initiation into the group involves getting very close a mountain lion armed with nothing but a cheap disposable camera and take a picture of the lion's face. That initiation right, two charachters that are dogs, the use- though not over use- of modern technology, the developed attitude of not carrying about ones own death, the catch 22 aspect of so many jobs - all made this an interesting read, with an unusual end.
