In the previous book I complained about how Letty had not been developed as a character. This book corrects that. Her plot was a 5/5.
I am not particularly big into the political aspects of some of the novels thus far. Otherwise, this would be a 5. 5/5 for the Letty bits for sure. Loved the Juliet Briar and Letty plot.
Overall this was a pretty good book. No serious complaints other than I do kinda miss the old unmarried Davenport days of serial killers etc. I'm not a big fan of this BCA stuff with Lucas being a fixer of situations. It's okay, but I miss his cop cop days. Hoping future books don't swing too often too heavily in the political way.
Another entertaining read. Pretty fast read as well. Not as complex as some of the books but not simple either.
I liked the way it ended. Sometimes things don't go quite as you expect in the real world. Bad things happen. Don't wanna spoil anything, but this was a decent book.

Nineteen books in and I'm still loving this series. This one is real corker. Davenport's adopted daughter Letty is an interesting character and I can easily see how she can support a spin-off series. Her actions near the climax of the book raise a few eyebrows, though. I was expecting that 'f****in Flowers' to join the melee at the end, which would have been great. Sandford is master of this genre.
Sandford does it again! Great plot (nice change from murderers) and amusing dialog.
Always good reads. This one is set against the Republican National Convention in Minneapolis in June 2008. Robberies, terrorists, and revenge all feature in this latest Davenport thriller.
I found this one to be a hot mess, dull and predictable. It feels like the series has gone on too long or maybe it was because it was so political that I couldn't give a damn about. It was more than just the people trying to buy Republican votes getting violently ripped off (off page the crew hit the Democratic vote buyers and I didn't care about that either). It was mostly we spent WAY too much time in the head of various bad guys. We have the people robbing the vote for money people, we have the person who is using the robbers, we have another bad guy out to punish Lucas, there's a terrorist out to shoot the Republican candidates when they're in town stumping.
And we have more of that than we do of Lucas in the beginning. We also have his daughter Letty being threatened by the guy out for Lucas's blood (he blames him for putting him in a wheelchair). All of these bits are often only a page or less so you're jumping all over the place. I about tossed this thing across the room when Letty is threatened and she decides Lucas will kill the guy so she can't tell her adopted dad about this and will sort it out herself.
This was far less of a mystery than a suspense book and I prefer the former. I used to like this series but if this had been my introduction into it I would never have read further.

One of the weaker in this series in my view. The book rambles at times but still if you enjoy the characters worth reading.
I'm starting to get bored of the Prey series, so many creepy people. Lucas has met them all.
Ah, Good ol' Lucas Davenport. I didn't realize it had been so long since I caught up with him - I'm several behind in the series of Prey books. Good, fast-paced story as usual. This one featured quite a lot of Letty, his teenage ward that he met in a previous novel. I love her. She is smart and feisty!
