"I love John Sandford's Lucas Davenport series. This one had its main character Virgil Flowers who we first hear of in the prey series. A great read - lots of suspense and twists and turns. Likeable hero, and kept me guessing. I read this in a day - a real page turner. John Sandford rocks! "

    " 4-1/2 stars. The book started out a little slow and it was occasionally difficult to keep all the characters straight in my mind, but overall a great story. "

    " I've enjoyed reading John Sandford's "Prey" series, but didn't find Virgil Flowers to be much of an interesting character with any depth. The plot was decent and imaginative, but fell short of Sandford's other excellent novels. "

    " I really enjoy this series. I didn't even start with the first book but could keep up. I enjoy the character of Virgil Flowers and this was a very fast paced thriller. I was never quite sure who was the killer until the very end- just how I like it! "

    " I was skeptical about whether Sanford could pull off writing Virgil Flowers significantly different from Lucas Davernport but he pulled it off. Story moved at a "tense" pace and I enjoyed it enough to check out the second. "

    " This is a good read. Virgil Flowers has a good sense of humor; wears rock related T-shirts; and has a way with women. Sandford' plot is tight and there are enough twists and turns to keep you guessing. The denouement ls unexpected. I plan on following this series "
