“Holy Ghost†is the eleventh in a series of Virgil Flowers novels, but it can be read as a stand-alone. Although I have read several of the earlier books in the series, this review is oriented towards the reader not familiar with Virgil Flowers. My reasoning is that most fans of Flowers will already have purchased the book. I apologize in advance to those fans if I’ve erred.POV: Third person. I’m grateful for that decision, as I believe the more neutral stand that third person permits is a better fit for the wry sarcasm that I detect in the narrative.BLUSH FACTOR: There are plenty of profanities, including several “f†words. There also is slang regarding issues of activities normally occurring in the bedroom, if you get my drift. Probably, you won’t be reading this aloud to your prayer group.ADVENTURE: Yes, to wild hunting grounds of rural Minnesota with its wild fly population waiting for the great white hunter. You’ll understand this factious reference better while perusing chapter one.THE WRITING: A tongue-in-cheek look at rural life for a war vet opens this suspenseful tale of murder. The opening drips with sarcasm and is almost over-the-top. Had I not known some folks in southeast Ohio who reminded me of this mayor, but who WERE over-the-top, I might have burst out laughing. Instead, I just got this wry-looking smile…I hasten to add, though, that at some points in the book I did break into an audible chuckle. There are times when I believe you will, as well.GRAMMAR, EDiTING & SUCH: This is a first-rate production by a premier writer.CHARACTER: Anybody not familiar with Sandford’s Virgil Flowers will probably find him to feel familiar, for he is the natural-born big brother I’d have sought out when I was younger. After all, any man who loves his dog as much as Flowers loves Honus has to be a hero.SOUL: Since I live in rural North Dakota myself, and have come to know a number of folks who could well be characters in “Holy Ghost,†IExcerpt‘…decided Bilbija was right: the thing hadn’t been opened in years, and part of the problem with pushing it open was that it had been tarred shut.On the other hand, the roof had good sight lines to the places where the shooting victims had been standing. When Virgil walked around the roof, he found the second floor was built over half the structure, with the back half dropping to a single story. If someone had a short ladder—not even a stepladder but one of the three-step stools used to reach high cupboards—he could have climbed onto the back roof, then used the stool to climb to the top. Getting down would be even faster, if it had become necessary to flee. He could have gone from roof to roof with no more than a three-foot drop.If the shooter climbed up and down the back of the building, between the wall and the dumpster by the kitchen door, he might even do it unseen.Virgil put it down as a possibility. The roof didn’t show any footprints, discarded DNA-laden cigarette butts, a book of matches from a sleazy nightclub, an accidentally dropped driver’s license, or any other fictional possibilities, so he went back down the hatch and pulled it shut.“Find anything?†Bilbija asked.“A nice view, but . . . no.â€â€œDidn’t think you would,†Bilbija said. “Say, you want a beer or a quick shot to keep you going? I got a nice rye.â€Virgil declined the offer and worked his way back up Main Street, this time behind the stores on the west side, and found a more complicated situation, a mix of mostly ramshackle prewar houses and small businesses, some of them in converted houses. The ProNails place had a dusty, handwritten “Out of Business†sign in a window, but Auto Heaven, Buster’s Better Quality Meats, and Trudy’s Hi-Life Consignment were still operating; nobody had heard a shot fired.Because of the way the houses and businesses were mixed, there were multiple spaces and slots between hedges and behind fences where a rifleman could have hidden. Virgil was lining up a theoretical shot down toward the churches when a man’s voice called, “Hold it right there! I got a gun on you!â€Virgil raised his hands: “I’m a cop. Don’t shoot.â€A heavyset man in a blue T-shirt and a ragged pair of Dickies coveralls stepped out from behind a garage twenty feet away. He was maybe fifty, balding, with a wind-eroded face. He was aiming an ancient twelve-gauge double-barreled shotgun at Virgil’s stomach. “Cop, my…’Sandford, John. Holy Ghost (A Virgil Flowers Novel) (pp. 33-35). Penguin Publishing Group. Kindle Edition.BOTTOM LINEThe honest look at rural life is not always a pleasant sight. City folks are probably not impressed by us, but that’s tough. I loved the insight into people who feel just like my neighbors and I enjoyed the mystery too much to take any stars away due to language.Five stars out of five.I am striving to produce reviews that help you find books that you want, or avoid books that you wish to avoid.

One if the best Virgil Flower novels, IMHO...Complexly plotted, great dialog, and very real characters.I swear to God I don't know what I'm going to do if Sandford ever retires!
Where Virgil Flowers invites his acolytes to help him establish a record in eating microwaved chicken pot pies and a luhcrative time is had by Mr.Sandford at the expense of the reader.
While not uproariously funny, this murder mystery is likely to make you smile a lot. Virgil Flowers is on hand - reluctantly, since his pregnant girlfriend is an hour away and he'd rather be with her - to lend his expertise on a peculiar matter. The local church had a visitation by the Blessed Virgin Mary and has become something of a pilgrimage shrine, lifting a fading prairie town out of its death spiral, but that isn't his concern. People are getting shot in front of the church, though, and that is what brings him to a town where there isn't a decent restaurant and he's reduced to living on frozen pot pies. There are an assortment of sub-plots, but they all tie into one another in Sandford's trademark way: with a combination of shrewd and bird-brained characters. I got a real kick out of this entry in an ongoing series. It can be read as a stand-alone, but you'll get more out of it if you read them in order and you can watch Virgil Flowers gradually move from ladies' man to settled dad-to-be.
I won't bother to rehash the synopsis... Check the book description. Here's my take:Lately, in Sandfords books, the reader knows who the killer or killers are in the 1st couple chapters and it's about Davenport or That F'n Flowers trying to track them down. I don't mind the Cat-and-Mouse books so much but I first fell for Sandford's books trying to figure out who the perpetrator(s) were. I'm more than halfway into this one and I'm still guessing. Without spoiling anything, I will say there were some questions that Virgil was trying to answer that I figured out first and that is always a treat. Call 'em mysteries within a mystery.If you've loved any of Sandford's previous works, this one won't disappoint. Frankie is a treat, Jenkins and Shrake still crack me up, and Bea Sawyer is as by the book and helpful as always. If you've never read any of the others, you don't know anything about the people I just mentioned and should check out earlier books in the series.I can say without finishing the book I already feel I got my money's worth. Can't wait for the next Prey novel.
I am a huge John Stanford fan, but I feel he has lost his touch as a writer or his publisher paid someone else to write this book under his name. Virgil did not even have Virgil’s personality. I feel I was duped into buying this book. The book made no sense. It wasn’t funny or thrilling. I was angry and disappointed when it ended.
I can't get enough of John Sandford's books. This one was really good with original ideas. It was also good to see Jenkins and Shrake again.Read this one and you will not be disappointed.
Sanford's two main characters, Lucas Davenport and Virgiul Flowers, have over the years provided hours of pleasure. No more. The 11th Flower book is sadly repetitive--plot, subplot, small town, witty repartees and a feeling that I've just been conned out my $17.95 Sanford needs a new hero, and a new line of thought. By the time I finished reading Holy Ghost, I no longer cared whether Flowers solved the crime (murders, main plot) or saw through the apparition of the Virgin Mary in a small town church (subplot.) Flowers is now engaged to be married, so even the faint amusement garnered from watching him spar with female characters is gone. I suspect the Sanford machine will keep cranking out novels. After all, what publisher would give up such a good thing? But it's sad to see a great crime writer become uninteresting.
