Product Description
It’s a joy to announce that John Sandford is still doing everything right,” wrote the Cleveland Unadorned Dealer about the second adventure of Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension investigator Virgil Flowers. “Virgil acts like the best series protagonists-apt a name we just delight in spending time with.”
Virgil’s permanently been known for having a to some extent active, er, social life, but he’s probably not going to be getting too many opportunities for that during his new case. While competing in a fishing tournament in a remote area of northern Minnesota, he gets a call from Lucas Davenport to investigate a murder at a nearby resort, where a woman has been shot while kayaking. The resort is for women only, a place to relax, get fit, recover from plastic surgery, community with scenery, and while it didn’t start out to be a place mostly for persons with Sapphic inclinations, that’s pretty much what it is today.
Which makes things all the more intricate for Virgil, because as he starts investigating, he finds a web of relations between the people at the resort, the victim, and some local women, notably a talented country singer. The more he digs, the more he discovers the arrows of suspicion that point in many directions, encompassing a multitude of motivations: jealousy, blackmail, greed, rage, dread. Then he finds that this is not the first murder, that there was a second, seemingly unrelated one, the year before. And that there’s about to be a third, certainly related one, any time now. And as for the fourth . . . well, Virgil better hope he can catch the killer before that happens. Because it could be his own.
Rich with the brilliant plotting and compulsively readable prose that are his hallmarks, Rough Country is another immensely satisfying tale by one of our very best suspense writers.

Is the fee a joke?
Seriously, you sold me a Kindle with the promise of books under $10, and now you want nearly $15?
Thanks, I have plenty of choices…don’t need this book at this fee.

I agree that this Kindle fee is more than what I expect to pay for a new Kindle relief. Something needs to be done or people like me who paid a lot of money for a KindleDX will just go back to paperbacks and Kindles will not survive

I have two Kindles which I like because I could get the books more cheaply and more portable but now you want to charge me $1.00 less and in some cases of new releases more than a print book for that privilege. I even bought two for my media center and now I won’t be able to afford to load the new books I thought would be best for this. I have been recommending your product on the premise that eventually it pays for itself in book savings –this is no longer right so I will not be recommending anymore.
Not a excellent business choice.

Here’s the thing, Amazon. When it comes to recreational fiction, I have no need to add books to my library. So I can buy the hardcover and resell while it is a hot bestseller through Amazon at a net cost of $3-$5. The Kindle is more convenient, but there is no resale value to the books. Therefore, when the fee of the book and the ebook are the same, I’ll choose the hardback.

Update:Despite comments not more than I bought it – but the Hardcover copy
I reflect Mr Sandford is terrific. Only reason for this comment from a fan who will keep buying his books is that this plot was a small too weak. I like the series so much that I would like a small more effort in plotting next time. Still fantastic read.
Kindle will not work with this fee type. I join the earlier reviewer in being outraged!
(Apologies to John Sandford who permanently delivers enjoyable professional works which I never miss – I considered Kindle but this one I will buy in paper, as usual.)
