John Sandford

Virgil Flowers heads north to solve a puzzling murder - and finds that the country is very rough indeed. While competing in a fishing tournament in a remote area of northern Minnesota, Flowers gets a call from Lucas Davenport asking him to investigate a murder at a nearby resort, where a woman has been shot while kayaking. The resort is for women only: a place to relax, get fit, recover from plastic surgery and commune with nature. As Flowers starts to ask questions, he finds a web of connections between the people at the resort, the victim and some local women, notably a talented country singer. And the more he digs, the more he discovers the resort to be a hotbed of jealousy, blackmail, greed, anger and fear. And then he discovers that this is not the first murder, that there was a second, seemingly unrelated killing the year before. And that there's about to be a third, definitely related one, any time now. And as for the fourth ...well, Virgil had better hope he can catch the killer before that happens. Because it could be his own.

Virgil Flowers Series

Rough Country

In southeast Minnesota, a school board meeting is coming to an end. The board chairman announces that the rest of the meeting will be closed, due to personnel issues. "Issues" is correct. The proposal up for a vote is whether to authorise the killing of a local reporter. Meanwhile, Virgil Flowers is helping out a friend by looking into a dognapping, when he gets a call from Lucas Davenport. A murdered body has been found, and the victim is a local reporter...

Deadline

A few years back, Virgil investigated the corrupt – and as it turned out, homicidal – local school board in Trippton, Minnesota. Now the town’s back in view with more alarming news: A woman’s been found frozen in ice. There’s a possibility that it might be connected to a high school class of twenty years ago, and so, Virgil begins to dig into twenty years’ worth of bad blood.

Deep Freeze

Meet Virgil Flowers, thrice-divorced, affable member of the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, reporting to Lucas Davenport. A series of murders in the sleepy town of Bluestem kicks off this series, leaving Flowers wondering what on earth could be happening - and whether he might be next.
