Whenever you hear the sky rumble, it usually means a storm. In Virgil Flowers' case, make that two storms. The exceptional new thriller, written by the author whose books are "pure reading pleasure" (Booklist), brings the first storm from an unlikely source: the Minnesota zoo. Two large and rare Amur tigers have vanished from their cage, causing authorities to worry that they have been stolen for their valuable body parts, which are highly prized in traditional Chinese medicine. People will go to extreme lengths to obtain these parts, and some will go even further than others, as Virgil is about to discover. Meanwhile, on the home front, Virgil's relationship with his girlfriend Frankie is becoming more serious. However, the situation becomes more complicated when Frankie's sister Sparkle moves in for the summer. Her research into migrant workers brings her into conflict with violent people who do not want to be researched. Additionally, she finds Virgil to be quite attractive.
