3.5 Stars. Holy Ghost is #11 in the Virgil Flowers series but can easily stand alone.
A tiny Minnesota town is breathing it’s last breath when suddenly, a “miraculous” thing happens, an apparition of the Virgin Mary appears. Tourists and pilgrims flock to the tiny town, people that left come back home and business is booming. Until a series of shootings threatens to end it all.
Virgil Flowers, BCA investigator is called in. While he is investigating, the shootings continue and Virgil discovers a murder that went undetected for weeks. Virgil tries to figure out the motive so that he can stop these shootings.
In the style of this series, we follow Virgil and the other colorful characters through the investigation and are treated to glimpses of small town life. The interplay between the characters is funny and head-shakingly authentic at times.
While definitely not a whodunit, this series is a blend of howdunnit and cozy mystery set in Minnesota. It is a good series for light hearted mystery lovers.
