Resumen del Editor

Six months ago, Lucas Davenport tackled his first case as a statewide troubleshooter, and he thought that one was plenty strange enough. But that was before the Russian got killed. On the shore of Lake Superior, a man named Vladimir Oleshev is found shot dead, three holes in his head and heart, and though nobody knows why he was killed, everybody - the local cops, the FBI, and the Russians themselves - has a theory. And when it turns out he had very high government connections, that's when it hits the fan. A Russian cop flies in from Moscow, Davenport flies in from Minneapolis, law enforcement and press types swarm the crime scene - and, in the middle of it all, there is another murder. Is there a relationship between the two? What is the Russian cop hiding from Davenport? Is she - yes, it's a woman - a cop at all? Why was the man shot with...50-year-old bullets? Before he can find the answers, Davenport will have to follow a trail back to another place, another time, and battle the shadows he discovers there - shadows that turn out to be both very real and very deadly.

Reseñas de la Crítica

Winner of Minnesota Book Award

“Vintage Sandford - a tough, intriguing story wrapped around an equally tough and intriguing cop.” (Chicago Tribune)

“Skillfully blends dark humor and the macabre in scenes worthy of a Coen brothers’ movie...pure delight.” (Orlando Sentinel)

A Comfortable Davenport

Hmmmm.... Are the Russians meddling with Lucas Davenport's cases? After all everyone else today seems to claim they're responsible for mega-mischief, so why not Minneapolis? Well, they're one piece in this tasty stew. Sandford's a master at this stuff, and Richard Ferrone IS Lucas Davenport. And Both of them come together again here to do what they do cooly.

I like this series, and this as good as the best of them.

Amother great Lucas Davenport mystery

What made the experience of listening to Hidden Prey the most enjoyable?

I like listening to these mystery books as you get a better feel for each different character by the voice and infliction of speech.

Who was your favorite character and why?

The Russian "cop". She was intense but very funny at the same time

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

NO, Listened to this book on my commute to and from work and while working out.

Any additional comments?

Yet another good Lucas Davenport read! This time Lucas is dealing with Russian spies in Minnesota. A story with a good plot and a very psychotic bad guy that is a grandpa. You don't usually find the old grandpa being such a bad guy! There was even some great humor. I was listening to this while working out at the gym one day and I know people had to be looking at me like I was crazy when I am laughing at a few scenes while lifting weights. I enjoy Sandford's intense plot lines and his sense of humor which make for a great book

BEST

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

The title was vague...but the story was awesome. I had a little problem with the second part, it had a back noise like radio or something but AUDIBLE courteously give me $10 credit for it...Im very grateful... Thank you

What about Richard Ferrone’s performance did you like?

I just love it

Great story

I could hear other people talking in the background throughout the book. Other than that excellent book overall

Excellent addition to the series

John Sanford has managed to create a book with a sufficiently intricate plot to keep the reader interested, along with a variety of characters that he skillfully interweaves among the activities. It surprises me that a series as established as this one can present a book with such a fresh face.

Interesting and creative

Great and interesting story line. Well done as usual. Interesting twist and well read by RF. Great Russian interpretation by RF.

Anything by Sandford is a great read!

This is vintage Lucas Davenport. The pace is excellent keeping me totally occupied on the elliptical. I get in 60 minutes with no mental fatigue. Totally worth a listen.

good listen, good plot, held interest

I really was absorbed by the plot and couldn't wait to get to the resolution. It was a great attention keeper.

Background noise

Love this series but there is some background noise on this recording. It's not too intrusive more slight annoying.
