Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

Sandford sends series hero Lucas Davenport's family off to London to ensure that domestic concerns never slow the action in this sexy, bloody thriller. Davenport, a Minnesota State Bureau of Criminal Apprehension investigator, had lately been doing political fix-it jobs for the governor, but this time he's got a psychopathic serial killer on his hands. ("All major metro areas had them, sometimes two and three at a time. The public had the impression that they were rare. They weren't.") The first victim, a young woman, was "scourged" with a wire whip; number two, a young man, had his penis cut off. Evidence first points to recently released sex offender Charlie Pope. Though Charlie is pretty dumb and the killer is extremely smart, it takes Davenport and his series partner, Detective Sloan, a while to realize they're chasing the wrong guy. Sandford introduces some lighter moments, the most entertaining about Davenport's new iPod and his quest to compile a list of the 100 best rock songs ever recorded, which every cop on the force gives him suggestions for. These moments allow readers to catch their breath amid the otherwise nonstop tension as the killer taunts the authorities while snaring more victims, and the cops race around the countryside always just a few minutes too late. For those who thought Davenport (and Sandford) were slowing down and showing signs of age and prosperity, this superlative entry will dispel all such notions. This is tough, unstoppable, white-knuckle fiction.

From AudioFile

In what may be one of the best of Sandford's popular "Prey" series, Investigator Lucas Davenport tracks down a monstrous murderer who seems to be carrying out the sadistic wishes of three institutionalized serial killers. Richard Ferrone carries listeners through the many plot twists, never losing his way. Ferrone has performed so many "Prey" novels that he's become Lucas Davenport. It's hard to imagine anyone else giving voice to the gruff yet sensitive ex-cop. He makes the characters seem as real as the guy drinking beer at the next bar stool.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great thriller but doesn't know rock-n-roll!, May 13 2005
By Richard Clark "The Postmaster" (Hollywood. CA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Broken Prey (Hardcover)
I agree with the last reviewer, Lucas Davenport was much more fun before he got domesticated, but we all must grow-up, even Lucas. I actually had found this series to be wanting the last few outtings. Like most series I figured it had run its course and it was time to move on. I am glad though that I gave the Prey series another chance, despite Lucas Davenports domestication this is still a top notch suspense thriller! A fast paced, maze of a story that keeps you guessing right up until the end. The plot has great momentum and the author manages to hold off revealing the actual killer until late in the book (something that I think adds to the suspense). The only reason I am giving this book four stars instead five is because of Lucas Davenports top 100 rock-n-roll song picks, come on! Billy Joel's the Piano Man???????? That's not rock-n-roll!
