From Publishers Weekly

Det. Lucas Davenport has battled some real demons over the past 15 Prey novels and drifted in and out of lust and love with a host of women. But now he's happily married to the lovely Weather; has a nine-month-old son, Sam; and takes care of his 12-year-old ward, Letty West. Sure, he's got a measure of the old angst, but he's growing accustomed to the good life, spending quality time alone on the couch drinking beer and watching TV golf. His new job is running the Office of Regional Research at the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension where he looks into various crimes and "fixes shit" for the governor. So when a dead Russian shows up on the docks in Duluth, Lucas is assigned to shepherd the lady investigator, Nadya Kalin, being sent by the Russian government. From the very first pages, the reader knows it's teenager Carl Walther who has killed the Russian. What makes the book intriguing is the manner in which the sagacious Davenport goes about uncovering the rest of the co-conspirators-a gang of Minnesota-based Communist spies headed by Carl's grandpa, 92-year-old ex-KGB colonel Burt Walther. That Sandford makes this unlikely plot believable is a mark of his mastery of the technical aspects of the mystery form and a testament to his overall writing skills. Readers will be pleased with this relaxed version of the moody Minneapolis investigator. In past novels, the womanizing Davenport would have romanced the good-looking Russian lady, but the new Davenport is content to play the part of friend and protector and go back to his cozy family with an unstained and remarkably contented soul.

From AudioFile

Lucas Davenport, who is with the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension in Michigan, teams up with Nadya, a Russian policewoman and intelligence agent, to determine who killed the Russian Rodion Oleshev. But the clues don't add up, and more people end up dead, so Nadya and Lucas must determine who is shooting fifty-year-old bullets and what the KGB has to do with it all. Eric Conger manages to keep all the characters straight as he weaves between Russians and Michiganders and copes with the disjointed abridgment of Sandford's tightly woven plot. Sound effects highlight the murders and shoot-outs, adding tension to the taut story line. Conger's emotional distance during the narration adds tension when the clues point in contradictory directions.

3.0étoiles sur 5 Not a bad read, Juil 5 2007
Par Toni Osborne "The Way I See It" (Montreal, Canada) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Hidden Prey (Paperback)
According to the critics this thriller is not Sandfords best. I must say I found it most enjoyable and very entertaining, in my opinion; it is a dynamic and satisfying read.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Wow!, Aoû 4 2004
Par Un client
One of my favorite summer reads. There is plenty of action, several more brutal murders, and lots of interesting obsrvations regarding police work, but this is much more in the tradition of straight police procedurals than a complicated murder mystery.

I would also recommend another great book called THE BARK OF THE DOGWOOD.

2.0étoiles sur 5 Oh well, they can't all be great, Juil 19 2004
Par Soyini "soyini" (Boynton Beach, FL United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
This is worse than Easy Prey. And not because Lucas is an old married man but because he seems to have lost all of his detecting ability. What happened to the logical, game playing brain? Where are the brilliant leaps of intuitive insight? Where is the sex appeal? Where is the intensity? Where is Lucas Davenport?!!!

Aside from the character being less than exciting, I found the the plot development to be lacking. When the reader knows from the beginning "who done it", the author must engage your attention with the clever ways in which the hero figures it out.
