Shock Wave by John Sandford

4.0

Huh! Virgil #5 is a bit different and is a mystery. Usually, when reading Sandford's thriller, the reader knows who the villain is right off the bat. Not this time!

Someone is mad that a big chain store Pyemart is opening in Butternut Falls (I didn't know this is a real place). Bombs have been going off and innocent lives lost. The first victim was Pye's executive assistant. While preparing a conference room for a board meeting, the first bomb went off and killed her instantly. Then another at a new Pyemart construction site. ATF, and Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension were called to assist local law enforcement.

This is a good mystery with some county-level corruption and multiple twists that threw me off track, so many possible suspects! Another worthy Virgil Flowers book.
