Book Description
Publishers Weekly
Near the start of bestseller Sandford's winning third thriller to feature 
Virgil Flowers of the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (after 
Heat Lightning), Virgil gets a call while muskie fishing from his boss, 
Lucas Davenport (the hero of Sandford's long-running Prey series). Lucas 
orders Virgil to look into the shooting death of Erica McDill, an ad 
agency exec from Minneapolis and a big supporter of the Democratic Party, 
who was staying at the Eagle Nest Lodge in nearby Grand Rapids. A talk 
with lodge owner Margery Stanhope turns up unusual details: Margery's 
clientele is mostly lesbian; an all-female rock band is involved; guests 
who are so inclined can buy young men for an evening's pleasure; and 
financial reasons could explain the murder. It's a complicated case, 
but Virgil is up to the task, and, as always, he's funny, smart and 
tough when he needs to be and catnip to the ladies.

Synopsis
Virgil Flowers' always been known for having a somewhat active, er, 
social life, but he's probably not going to be getting too many opportunities 
for that during his new case. While competing in a fishing tournament 
in a remote area of northern Minnesota, he gets a call from Lucas Davenport 
to investigate a murder at a nearby resort, where a woman has been shot 
while kayaking. The resort is for women only, a place to relax, get 
fit, recover from plastic surgery, commune with nature, and while it 
didn't start out to be a place mostly for those with Sapphic inclinations, 
that's pretty much what it is today. 

That makes things all the more complicated for Virgil, because as he 
begins investigating, he finds a web of connections between the people 
at the resort, the victim, and some local women, notably a talented 
country singer. The more he digs, the more he discovers the arrows of 
suspicion that point in many directions, encompassing a multitude of 
motivations: jealousy, blackmail, greed, anger, fear. Then he finds 
that this is not the first murder, that there was a second, seemingly 
unrelated one, the year before. And that there's about to be a third, 
definitely related one, any time now. And as for the fourth . . . well, 
Virgil better hope he can catch the killer before that happens. Because 
it could be his own.
