Bad Blood

a Virgil Flowers novel

De: John Sandford

Narrado por: Eric Conger

The brilliant new Virgil Flowers thriller from the number one New York Times best-selling author.

One late fall Sunday in Southern Minnesota, a farmer brings a load of soybeans to a local grain elevator - and a young man hits him on the head with a steel bar, drops him into the grain bin, waits until he's sure he's dead, and then calls the sheriff to report the "accident". Suspicious, the sheriff calls in Virgil Flowers, who quickly breaks the kid down...and the next day the boy's found hanging in his cell.

Remorse? Virgil isn't so sure, and as he investigates he begins to uncover a multigeneration, multifamily conspiracy - a series of crimes of such monstrosity that, though he's seen an awful lot in his life, even he has difficulty in comprehending it...and in figuring out what to do next.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Flowers is a fun character, smart and honest with a healthy supply of cynicism and snark...a thoroughly engaging, suspenseful, satisfying story.” (The Washington Examiner)

“Sandford’s exciting fourth thriller to feature Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension agent Virgil Flowers. [His] biggest...case to date.” (Publishers Weekly)

“A Pandora’s box of multiple murders, criminal behavior…and revelations of deviancy that go back generations. As usual, Sandford delivers a great mystery with action, suspense, humor, and, yes, sex. Virgil always gets his man, but he also gets the girl. Good reading.” (Booklist)

Still good tHe second time

What’s not to like about Virgil Flowers?
Very early in this book I realized I had already listened to it. Didn’t matter.

NOVEL CRIMES

COULD NOT PUT IT DOWN, RIVETING
LIKED THE SETTING AS WELL.
HOPE I FIND OTHERS LIKE IT

Suspense

Another great Virgil mystery. The longer you listen, the more intense the story becomes. The way he describes things makes you think that you’re there and watching it happen. Excellent novel.
Enjoy!

THIS BOOK HAD ME GOING FROM THE BEGINNING!!!!

This is CRA----ZY!!!! the people in this book did ridiculous things! Glad the kids had Flowers on their side. Can I get a Whoop-Whoop for Virgil Flowers!!!!

Not sure how things were going to end!!

This book was intriguing in a weird way. The twists & turns were not predictable. Pretty exciting to me!

Great writing, strong action, and characters you can believe in

Thanks for another great read/listen John Sandford. You make Lucas and Virgil treasured people

The first Flowers book I’ve not even liked

A very sick group of people, living in the sticks, having fully dehumanized each other, now manage to dehumanize Virgil Flowers as well. No, he doesn’t become a sexual predator or anything like that, but he has apparently become an empty shell of the human we knew from the earlier books. In this novel, Virgil has no apparent personal life and I’m not sure he mentioned fishing even once. And did something happen to that sweet mother of 5 he’s been canoodling with in the last four or five novels? Is this some weird break-up novel where the readers aren’t worth letting in on the joke? It didn’t work.
