Dark Angel is a story about computer hackers and Russians. It is just a story. The characters were likeable. The settings were believable. It did not seem like a true story but it was thrilling nevertheless. Only three and a half stars were awarded in this review because it was not necessarily believable.

A federal judge and his two sons are gunned down in their home. With the investigation at a stand still. Lucas Davenport( US Marshal's ) and Virgin Flowers( Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension) are brought in to assist in solving the murders. Davenport and Flowers must try to solve the crime before the widow gets her revenge. An outstanding police procedural.

I am one of the author's biggest fans. Over the years, I have read all of his books. And enjoyed them very much. BUT THIS ONE!!! Holy smokes! It scared the bejeesus out of me! The whole idea of the bi0-terrorism is horribly frightening. And Sandford really, really outdoes himself in this one. After the whole Covid pandemic, it just seemed like this plot could actually happen.
Sandford brought in his newest character, Letty Davenport, to work alongside her father (Lucas Davenport, the main subject of most of the Prey novels). Together with a re0ccurring cast of characters, they make the book seem so real. I especially enjoyed how, in this novel, Sandford expanded the regular cast by actually bringing in the military. Which seemed pretty logical, considering the scope of the threat. And I'm enjoying the expansion of his world, as poor old Lucas is deserving of a good break.
All in all, this is another home run for the author.
Highly recommend!

Standard JS Virgil Flowers read. Witty, good character repartee, and the imperfect heroic nature of VF. It got slightly confusing toward the end as the mystery was solved. The bad guys appeared suddenly and the reveal could have been written better. But Shrake and Jenkins developed some depth and the last 3 pages bought the rating up from 3.5 to 4 stars. Only two left to read but its been a good ride with that fuckin' Flowers.
