John Sandford
Fan-favorite heroes Lucas Davenport and Virgil Flowers join forces on a deadly maritime case in the remarkable new novel from #1 New York Times-bestselling author John Sandford.An off-duty Coast Guardsman is fishing with his family when he calls in some suspicious behavior from a nearby boat. It's a snazzy craft, slick and outfitted with extra horsepower, and is zipping along until it slows to pick up a surfaced diver . . . a diver who was apparently alone, without his own boat, in the middle of the ocean. None of it makes sense unless there's something hinky going on, and his hunch is proved right when all three Guardsmen who come out to investigate are shot and killed.They're federal officers killed on the job, which means the case is the FBI's turf. When the FBI's investigation stalls out, they call in Lucas Davenport. And when his case turns lethal, Davenport will need to bring in every asset he can claim, including a detective with a fundamentally criminal mind: Virgil Flowers.

"A different type of Lucas Davenport story here. Lucas moving his operations to South Florida and New Jersey, tempering his normally rogue behavior with sharp focus on law enforcement teams, hunting for heroin packages dumped in the Atlantic, Virgil Flowers going undercover as a scuba diver to retrieve the drugs, and pursuing organized crime teams selling drugs. An interesting story, and the focus on deep diving is intriguing."
"There are so many good ones! I'll have to think about it! What is yours?"
