    About this audiobook

    The thrilling new novel in the #1 New York Times-bestselling series.
     
    In Southeast Minnesota, down on the Mississippi, 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 before them is whether to authorize the killing of a local reporter. The vote is four to one in favor.

    Meanwhile, not far away, Virgil Flowers is helping out a friend by looking into a dognapping, which seems to be turning into something much bigger and uglier-a team of dognappers supplying medical labs-when he gets a call from Lucas Davenport. A murdered body has been found-and the victim is a local reporter. . . .

      This was free for Kindle, and, based on the blurb, I picked it thinking a mystery with a writer/reporter as the central character might be interesting, but I couldn't get into it. I didn't care for the main character (Jack McMorrow). Perhaps it is just that this was written prior to the early 1990s and stories were different then, but I found I wasn't willing to wait to find out what was going on and read several chapters of boring prose about people from the town that I can't figure out what they do etc.

      crime-fiction, newspapers, noir, Maine, small-town, law-enforcement*****The ME says it's drowning with hypothermia, most likely accidental. But why was the insecure middle aged photographer from the newspaper even out there since he had no car and it was a decent walk from town? Jack believes that he is the only one snooping around and invested in the death of this small town photographer with no family ties. What happens next is very important.Loved it!I have the audio and Michael A Smith is the voice actor who brings Jack and the other characters to life and makes it hard to stop listening.

      I've really struggled to find the next author that has the balls and the know-how to write an extensive series that will keep my attention. Since I'm done with Jeffrey Deaver and James Patterson, (Faye Kellerman gives me hives...) I'll wrap up the John Sandford novels, which are third string for sure, at best. They lack finness, but are familiar reruns, and can be knocked out in a day. Sandford is a good go-to when you're looking for a one night stand.
