**Don't miss John Sandford's brand-new thriller Ocean Prey - out
now** The eighth Virgil Flowers novel by internationally
bestselling author John Sandford Barns, the chairman, looked around
the room and said, 'Okay. We can do this. Let's see a show of
hands. It's unanimous, or it's prison. Do we kill Clancy Conley?'
"They all looked around at each other, each of them reluctant to go
first. Then the fat man raised his hand, and then Kerns, and then
the rest of them. "'It's unanimous,' Barns said." In southeast
Minnesota, down on the Mississippi, a school board meeting is
coming to an end. The board chairman announces that the rest of the
meeting will be closed, due to personnel issues. "Issues" is
correct. The proposal up for a vote before them is whether to
authorize the killing of a local reporter. There are no votes
against. Meanwhile, not far away, Virgil Flowers is helping out a
friend by looking into a dognapping, which seems to be turning into
something much bigger and uglier -- a team of dognappers supplying
medical labs -- when he gets a call from Lucas Davenport. A
murdered body has been found -- and the victim is a local
reporter... * * * Praise for John Sandford and the Virgil Flower
novels * * * 'Along the way to the satisfying ending, Virgil
displays the rough humor and rough justice that make him such an
appealing character' Publishers Weekly on Deep Freeze 'A knowing
portrait of small-town life layered into a very well plotted
mystery. Virgil understands that, in small towns, no one ever
outgrows high school... One of the very best novels in a superior
series'Booklist (starred review) on Deep Freeze 'Add a gripping
storyline, a generous helping of exquisitely conceived characters
and laugh-out-loud humor that produce explosive guffaws, not muted
chuckles, and you're in for the usual late-night,
don't-even-think-of-stopping treat when Flowers hits town' Richmond
Times-Dispatch on Deep Freeze 'An outstanding novel' Publishers
Weekly (starred review) on Escape Clause 'Perfect entertainment'
