When three teenagers start randomly killing people in rural
Minnesota, Bureau of Criminal Apprehension investigator
Virgil Flowers is sent in to assist local law enforcement
in apprehending them. As the identities of the victims
become known and the murder count continues to escalate,
Virgil feels there is something just not right about the
killing spree.
With a keen ability to reason out irregularities in an
investigation, Virgil is soon pursuing a different analysis
of the situation. This does not sit well with the local
authorities who are set on killing the murdering teens on
sight rather than bringing them in to face justice. With
such a volatile situation, the explosive resolution is not
surprising. What is surprising, though, is what actually
started the crime spree.
John Sandford is a master storyteller and his Virgil
Flowers series is just as brilliantly written as his Prey
series starring Virgil's boss, Lucas Davenport. I've read
every book in both series and never been disappointed in
the plotting or the character development. MAD RIVER is
another excellent addition to Sandford's long list of
bestsellers.
Bonnie and Clyde, they thought. And what’s-his-name, the
sidekick. Three teenagers with dead-end lives, and chips on
their shoulders, and guns.
The first person they killed was a highway patrolman. The
second was a woman during a robbery. Then, hell, why not
keep on going? As their crime spree cuts a swath through
rural Minnesota, some of it captured on the killers’ cell
phones and sent to a local television station, Bureau of
Criminal Apprehension investigator Virgil Flowers joins the
growing army of cops trying to run them down. But even he
doesn’t realize what’s about to happen next.
