Our featured book this week is John Sandford’s Deep Freeze, a Virgil Flowers novel.  

Class reunions are a time for memories, both good and bad, and as Virgil Flowers is about to find out, deadly.  Returning to Trippton Minnesota, this time to solve the murder of a woman frozen in a block of ice, Virgil must dig into twenty-five years’ worth of trauma, feuds, and secrets in order to get to the bottom of this perplexing case.  And the more bad-blood he unearths, the more he risks the spilling of his own blood…

Publishers Weekly calls it “An outstanding novel”, while Booklist’s’ starred review says of it, “You can’t make this stuff up, but, thankfully, Sandford can.  Imaginative, funny, and thoroughly engaging.”
