This is an author I was always going to start reading but never got around to.   My friends love his books.

I enjoyed the Virgil Flowers series.  I also read other books by him but sadly do not recall which ones.  All and all I would recommend his work.  I have read so many books in my lifetime it is difficult to remember all of them.

John Sandford has a new Virgil Flowers book out in October:Holy Ghost. I've read some Prey books, which are good, but Virgil Flowers is my favorite.

I just saw the first pre-order announcement for this Virgil Flowers book, so I'm posting it so you-all can review it.  

 

Holy Ghost by John Sandford

 

 

ABOUT HOLY GHOST

Virgil Flowers investigates a miracle–and a murder–in the wickedly entertaining new thriller from the master of “pure reading pleasure” (Booklist)

Pinion, Minnesota: a metropolis of all of seven hundred souls, for which the word “moribund” might have been invented. Nothing ever happened there and nothing ever would–until the mayor of sorts (campaign slogan: “I’ll Do What I Can”) and a buddy come up with a scheme to put Pinion on the map. They’d heard of a place where a floating image of the Virgin Mary had turned the whole town into a shrine, attracting thousands of pilgrims. And all those pilgrims needed food, shelter, all kinds of crazy things, right? They’d all get rich! What could go wrong?

When the dead body shows up, they find out, and that’s only the beginning of their troubles–and Virgil Flowers’–as they are all about to discover all too soon.
