wicked good

great series. Sandford is in top form with this one. The characters are strong and real, the story great.

Busy busy busy

The usual excellent Sandford book but way too many subplots on top of subplots. Maybe it was a combination of a couple unfinished works combined into one book. Maybe not.

Letty Takes Center Stage!

I think that this iteration of the Davenport series really features Letty. She takes center stage and, in many ways, is revealed to be a teenage, female incarnation of Davenport. I have come to expect Richard Ferrone's voice and characterizations, and I think he does a fantastic job, especially when one considers that he began this journey over 20 years ago. I can also appreciate that Davenport is flawed instead of being a superhero who does no wrong. This is a great series and I am going to download the next book today.

Audible please fix!

The story and narration are great! However, someone bungled up the recording. The Second half of the book is first and the first half is second. Audible please fix this!

AWESOME

If you like the prey series you will love this one!!! Great read (or Listen)

Connections

Wondered when and how he would bring Randy back . Makes the character's so interesting you go back and forth from book to book just for the development.

real action

always a good storyline. great reading. great charters and never a dull moment. love all the books.

Not Sandford's Best

The story - main and sub plots were very good and the connections while a bit obvious were good. The behavior and thinking of 14 year old Leddy were preposterous. Even the most experienced and tough kid at this age wouldn't engage like she did - riding around on a bike with cell phone engaging criminals. The author reached - a little more conservative and cautious Leddy would have been more convincing. Framing Lucus as a push over to women did not cut it. BUT - it is a story and I still read and enjoy all Sanford books - this had a few obvious holes. Letting Lane and Lindy escape was interesting too - usually he mops up all the bad guys.

Not that wicked

Two distinct subplots with little connection between them. One was excellent, the other was OK. Probably neither was enough for a complete novel, so ...
But, I always enjoy Sandford's books, especially the Prey series. I 'prey' that he'll write more of them.

John Sandford is always good.

Stories about heists r not my favorite, but I do appreciate a few things I learned in this book, fiction or not.
