Lucas Davenport gets a cryptic call from his friend the governor who is on the presidential campaign trail. The politician tells Davenport that he has picked up some disturbing vibes. Someone may be planning to kill one of the other candidates. Davenport is just the man to track down the lunatics who think political change comes at the end of gun barrel.
An extraordinary Lucas Davenport thriller from #1 New York Times bestselling author and Pulitzer Prize winner John Sandford.
After the events in Gathering Prey, Lucas Davenport finds himself in a very unusual situation no longer employed by the Minnesota BCA. His friend the governor is just cranking up a presidential campaign, though, and he invites Lucas to come along as part of his campaign staff. Should be fun! he says, and it kind of is until they find they have a shadow: an armed man intent on killing the governor...and anyone who gets in the way.
Rezension:
Praise for Extreme Prey
The latest Prey novel is exciting, politically astute, and ultimately terrifying. Sandford and Davenport are in top form. Booklist (starred review)
Add a hammock under a shady tree, and you've got a quintessential summer read. Minneapolis Star-Tribune
Sandford, as always, sets a heart-pounding pace. He permeates his work with wit, an engaging hero readers have come to cherish and a cat-and-rat match that in this case draws on the streak of violence that for years has left a bloody stain on the nation. Timely and troubling, it s a must-read for thriller devotees and political junkies. Richmond Times Dispatch
This guy Sandford is good. St. Louis Post-Dispatch
