(0 review)
About the Book A killer is leaving a puzzling calling card in the mouths of his victims. And in the middle of a steamy Minnesota summer, Virgil Flowers of the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension finds himself embroiled in an investigation with no easy answers--and no easy way out. Available in a tall Premium Edition. Book Synopsis Virgil Flowers hunts a killer responsible for a strange string of murders in this thriller from #1 New York Times bestselling author John Sandford. On a hot, humid summer night in Minnesota, Virgil Flowers gets a call from Lucas Davenport. A body has been found near a veterans' memorial in Stillwater with two shots to the head and a lemon in his mouth--exactly like the body they found two weeks ago. Working the murders, Flowers becomes convinced that someone is keeping a list--with many more names on it. And when he discovers what connects them all, he's almost sorry. Because if it's true, then this whole thing leads down a lot more trails than he thought it did--and every one of them is booby-trapped. Review Quotes Praise for Heat Lightning "Sandford returns to Flowers (and more than just a bit of Davenport, too) in Heat Lightning, and the ride's another wild one."-- Richmond Times-Dispatch "Features a colorful protagonist quite distinct from Davenport, and contains the usual snappy dialogue and suspenseful action."-- The Tennessean "A fun, breezy read."-- The Post and Courier "[A] fast-paced thriller..Flowers is a disarming and sometimes charming investigator. This book will appeal to readers of Sandford's Prey series as well as fans of adventures like those by Lee Child."-- Library Journal "Solid..Most readers will enjoy spending time in the company of the genial Flowers."-- Publishers Weekly "The very last surprise..is a honey."-- Kirkus Reviews About The Author John Sandford is the pseudonym for the Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist John Camp. He is the author of the Prey novels, the Kidd novels, the Virgil Flowers novels, and six other books, including three YA novels co-authored with his wife Michele Cook.
