I like John Sandford and this book was decent, but you can definitely tell that this is his first novel. While the other Sandford books I've read have some gruesome stuff in them, the violence in those books actually does something to serve the story. Here, that is not the case at all. If you want to get into this author's work, this is not the best starting point. He can write way better than this.
