John Sandford is one of the leading authors of crime fiction and continues to prove it with Stolen Prey - novel #22 in the hugely popular series featuring Lucas Davenport, an agent for the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Investigation.
Stolen Prey really steals our attention and keeps us interested till the end. A mix of cyber criminals and Mexican drug lords with their enforcers make the plot quite riveting and provides twists that we don’t see coming. The scenes involving murder are grisly and are more vicious than what is found in Lucas Davenport novels.
