Wow! I'm glad I've been backed up on reading, so Sandford isn't an automatic Kindle purchase for me anymore because his last two books have been disappointments. There's lots of discussion on the Internet about whether or not this was ghost-written. His "official" channel seems to say it was not; the ambiguous dedication at the beginning as well as the quality of the writing and the bizarre plot would seem to indicate it was.
The WTF-plot takes us into adventure and treasure hunting stories with a stolen artifact from an Israeli archeology site. It's like a bad Dan Brown novel, and since even a good Dan Brown novel is pretty bad (bad but entertaining) this is pretty disappointing.
I plodded through to about page 100 and just couldn't take it anymore. The Virgil Flowers character doesn't even seem like himself. I have too many other books to dip into to waste my time on this one.
