Possibly interesting book

I got this book from the library, yesterday: "The Last Policeman", by Ben H. Winters.  There is an asteroid large enough to permanently sterilize Earth, and it is on a collision course.  There isn't enough time to prevent the collision, and society pretty much dissolves away.  No mass riots, no violent anarchy, just profound apathy.  Suicide rates have increased dramatically.  The "Last Policeman", Hank Palace, continues to investigate even though there is no point.  An insurance salesman appears to have committed suicide, but there is something strange about it.  He thinks it might be murder.  Palace is a guy who continues to do his job in a world that logically and rationally doesn't give a fuck about it.  This aught to be good...
