I'm reading Deluge at the moment and I agree it's good to read a little about how Flack is coping/feeling since the bombing, and that his injuries/scars are still causing him discomfort. But I'm glad as well that they didn't go down that addicted-to-pain-meds route like they have with Without a Trace when Martin got shot and in Criminal Minds when Reid was kidnapped, I would've hated it if Flack had ended up that way, but to be honest I don't think he would. But who knows what would've happened. But it would've been nice to hear something about his experience with the bombing in the show. Maybe have him admit something.
I'm glad they didn't go down the tired "addicted to painkillers" route as well. It's a shame they never followed up with what Flack went through after the bombing, but it is Flack. He's not one to get weepy about it or dwell on it in an emotional sense. Flack really is a pretty tough guy. I'm curious about Deluge, though, because it would be nice to see a little follow up on the bombing!
Also,
KRAD, who is writing the next CSI: NY novel, has stated that he's a Flack fan, so I can't wait to see what he comes up with for our favorite detective!
