But, at the time, I was also blitzing through some of the older Prey novels, which I much preferred. Given the (at the time) strangely delayed UK publishing schedule for the Virgil Flowers series, I guess they just faded from my mind. Then S&S started publishing them closer to the US dates, and I started adding them to my Wish List, etc. But, given tight funds, I only got around to buying Heat Lighting and Rough Country. I'm hoping to get caught up this year.<br /><br />He really is a superb author, and I've loved everything he's written so far. I can see myself starting the Flowers books and just reading those for a couple weeks...Civilian Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10978134983999101494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25675853.post-13727578110893670522013-10-10T19:53:55.835+01:002013-10-10T19:53:55.835+01:00Thanks for the recommendation - I'll be sure t...Thanks for the recommendation - I'll be sure to check out "No One Can Know".Civilian Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10978134983999101494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25675853.post-70429739648620264462013-10-09T20:51:23.509+01:002013-10-09T20:51:23.509+01:00I'm actually re-reading the Virgil Flowers ser...I'm actually re-reading the Virgil Flowers series from the beginning at the moment, and they're just as good the second time around. 'Heat Lightning', in particular, is pretty dang awesome. Sandford is one of my favorite writers. I re-read his stuff on a regular basis and never get tired of it.

One of my favorite political thriller authors is Adrienne LaCava. I just finished reading her latest book, "No One Can Know" that takes place during the JFK assassination. The book contains an interesting cast providing various perspectives on 1960’s issues- awesome book!<br /><br /><a href="http://adriennelacava.com/" rel="nofollow">http://adriennelacava.com/</a>Beckynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25675853.post-71172553184334530742013-10-09T06:49:00.615+01:002013-10-09T06:49:00.615+01:00This comment has been removed by the author.Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05957358850375701366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25675853.post-83270845571411017722013-10-08T20:07:03.779+01:002013-10-08T20:07:03.779+01:00Has he?

...Has he? I didn't realise he'd moved away.<br /><br />Love his novels - read all of the Davenport/Prey series, the four Kidd novels, a couple of stand alones and also the one Virgil Flowers novel I mention in the review. One of these days, I'm going to have to visit the Twin Cities.Civilian Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10978134983999101494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25675853.post-73246120841850450572013-10-08T19:56:16.487+01:002013-10-08T19:56:16.487+01:00He used to live in Minnesota but has given up the ...He used to live in Minnesota but has given up the fair state.
