Class reunions: a time for memories—good, bad, and, as Virgil Flowers is about to find out, deadly—in this New York Times bestselling thriller from John Sandford. Virgil knows the town of Trippton, Minnesota, a little too well. A few years back, he investigated the corrupt—and as it turned out, homicidal—local school board, and now the town’s back in view with more alarming news: A woman’s been … alarming news: A woman’s been found dead, frozen in a block of ice. There’s a possibility that it might be connected to a high school class of twenty years ago that has a mid-winter reunion coming up, and so, wrapping his coat a little tighter, Virgil begins to dig into twenty years’ worth of traumas, feuds, and bad blood. In the process, one thing becomes increasingly clear to him. It’s true what they say: High school is murder.

I’ve read everything John Sandford has written, and I’m never disappointed (ok, he wrote a sci-fi book and I couldn’t finish it). He’s got a wicked dark sense of humor and some of the scumbag characters get what’s coming to them, and you feel like jumping up and cheering. I’m very attached to his characters, and look forward to seeing what they are up to in each book. I’m on a tight budget, but when a new book of his comes out, I splurge and reward myself and buy the electronic version. Please try ones of his books!
If you’re a John Sanford fan, the Virgil Flowers is a great action packed detective series. Run & get it!
I thought it was well written and fast paced.
