SHOCK WAVE

The small town of Butternut Falls is conflicted about the decision to build a Pyemart. Some feel that it will destroy many of the local businesses. When several bombs go off, killing innocent victims, Virgil Flowers is called in to investigate. As usual, it seems that all Virgil does is go around to talk to people and flirt with local women but he always seems to get results. Virgil has incentive because before long, it seems that he is one of the bomber's targets.

I've gotten really fond of John Sanford's Virgil Flowers books. I didn't think anyone could be more appealing than Lucas Davenport and I'm still a great fan of his, but I like Virgil, too. He is funny, laid back and very, very sharp. Nothing is going to get past him! This book was fun because Virgil didn't really have a love interest. Of course, he is checking out all of the women but for once, he wasn't jumping in bed with anyone. I'll be looking forward to the next in the series!
