Description

The ninth Virgil Flowers novel by internationally bestselling author John SandfordWhenever you hear the sky rumble, that usually means a storm.

In Virgil Flowers’ case, make that two. The first storm comes from, of all places, the Minnesota zoo.

Two large, and very rare, Amur tigers have vanished from their cage, and authorities are worried sick that they’ve been stolen for their body parts.

Traditional Chinese medicine prizes those parts for home remedies, and people will do extreme things to get what they need.

Some of them are a great deal more extreme than others – as Virgil is about to find out.  Then there’s the homefront. Virgil’s relationship with his girlfriend Frankie has been getting kind of serious, but when Frankie’s sister moves in for the summer, the situation gets a lot more complicated. Forget a storm – this one’s a tornado. * * * Praise for John Sandford and the Virgil Flowers novels * * * ‘An outstanding novel’ Publishers Weekly (starred review) on Escape Clause ‘Perfect entertainment’ Kirkus Reviews on Escape Clause '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
