Deadline by John SandfordMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Virgil Flowers is one of John Sandford's best creations. With this 8th outing, Virgil is in full Virgil mode. When he comes in contact with dog nappers, meth manufacturers, and a crazy, embezzling school board that has no qualms on killing people it can get pretty crazy. But, Virgil takes it all in stride. The Flowers character is not a superman but gets things done his own way. He is like his superior, Lucas Davenport in that he gets results, but in a very unconventional way. As with the Prey books, Minnesota is on full display. Having lived there for a time, it is very enjoyable to read about places you have been and recognize.
If you haven't read the Flowers series, pick up "Dark of the Moon", and start right now. Go!
