The novel opens with a young man killing a friend in a grain elevator without explaining why. Arrested and put in jail, he is murdered in his cell by a deputy sheriff. Agent Virgil Flowers is sent to investigate what is going on and soon finds himself facing the biggest child sex ring imaginable. With the assistance of the newly elected female Sheriff Lee Coakley, slowly unravels the many rumors and leads to reach a violent conclusion that will change the lives of many women and children for the better. Violent and the sexual abuse of women and children uncovered and described may be upsetting to some readers. Bad Blood is a good Virgil Flowers suspenseful novel. Virgil is called into help a local town with an apparent suicide only to find that it related to three other murders. Whether or not this was based upon a real crime story, it dealt with a horrible child and adult sex cult. The book received four stars in this review. Well, this one was a strange one; it began getting pretty dark toward the end, with lots of bad things happening. This shouldn't be too surprising considering religious extremists were involved. A lot of this is not something you'd expect from religious people, but as someone says in the story, you can interpret the Bible in many ways, and read almost anything you want into it. Fortunately, there was a lot of very humorous dialog that helps mitigate this dark behavior somewhat, and that's the reason I like this series so much. That and the political correctness of it all. OK, well, Virgil is a bit of a ladies man, and seems to fall in love with every female he comes across. But he doesn't really come on strong, and it works with him. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

I think I have read another Flowers book, but it's been awhile. And there is no reason, on the basis of this story, that I would not read more with this character. I don't think I will rush out to the local bookstore to buy one, but if I came across one in my travels, sure... I'd read it. ( )
