Author: John Sandford

Description: From #1 New York Times bestselling author John Sandford comes a gripping thriller featuring fan-favorite investigator Virgil Flowers, who must unravel a chilling series of murders marked by a bizarre signature—and a deadly motive.

On a sweltering summer night in Stillwater, Minnesota, Virgil Flowers is called to a crime scene where a man has been executed with two shots to the head and a lemon placed in his mouth—eerily mirroring a murder from just two weeks prior. As Virgil digs deeper, he uncovers a disturbing pattern: someone is working through a hit list, and the victims are connected in ways that suggest a far-reaching conspiracy. With each new lead, the case grows more complex and perilous, leading Virgil down a maze of secrets, vengeance, and traps that threaten to ensnare him before he can stop the killer.
