A review by sde
Holy Ghost by John Sandford

2.0

This was not my favorite Virgil Flowers book, but maybe because I was anticipating too much. A story that began with a Virgin Mary apparition in small town Minnesota was a great premise, but it was a really cursory part of the story. I would have liked more description of who was attracted to the town due to the apparition and how it changed the town. All the visitors in town could have led to more twists in the story than there were.

The story was a bit plodding and too many rather annoying male characters who were often ogling women. The side story crime of
Spoiler someone stealing a trailer of Legos worth a million dollars was a lot of fun, though.
